Art: Rae-Yen Song - in conversation with JJ Chan
Seminar
Rae-Yen Song: in conversation with JJ Chan
Date: 8 July 2021
Time: 6pm (BST)
Location: Online

Rae-Yen Song’s work explores the position of Other within our tangled reality, and speaks broadly and politically about foreignness, identity, survival and what it means to belong – or not. It draws first and foremost on personal and familial experiences, then uses fantasy and fabulation to fill in the gaps - inflating and embellishing these narrative source materials, elevating them to the level of parable, visualising them, and finally plotting them as points and histories in an alternate dimension, saturated with affect, absurdity and incongruity. Song lives and works in Glasgow. JJ Chan is an artist working across and amid sculpture, moving image and writing. Their work draws from their lived experience and stories stolen from eavesdropped conversations to explore the edges of our realities in constructing identities. They are currently Senior Lecturer in Fine Art at Kingston School of Art, London.
