Yeo Workshop is pleased to present a solo exhibition of works by Wei Leng Tay. Comprising photographic prints and installational forms, this exhibition continues Tay’s focus on how photographic and visual documents influence memory and our perception of history. Developed over the past year, these pieces rework archival images through various processes including digital imaging, historical contact printing, and the physical manipulation of images. In the course of entwining depiction and materiality in meaning-making, Tay abstracts and fragments memory. Her works reflect on relationships between private and public histories, and how they are embedded in the present. Linking family archives to wider societal systems, this exhibition presents experimental and novel ways in Tay's artistic approach to consider what a photograph is, and how images—-and therefore histories—-can be interpreted. Staring into Voids and Blues offers multiple entry-points to narratives through visual representation alongside abstractions of geometry, colour and form.
