Weixin Quek Chong explores fluidities and changing hybrid states in her experiments with installative and collective sensory experiences. Creating or growing scenographic worlds is a central approach in her practice. These take form as sculptures, images, installations and environmental narratives inspired by biodiverse processes as well as societal practices and subcultures.

While in residence, Weixin will continue a sculptural inquiry into the biodegradability and sustainability built into natural organisms and their strategies of mutuality, symbiosis and constant transformation. This will take shape as a new material vocabulary developed with elements that are temporal, organic or unpredictable in character. In doing so, Weixin intends to propose a contemporary materiality of creating and perceiving that could be a regenerative, rehabilitative vehicle for sensory bodies.
