The Rocking Dream: Au Sow Yee × Chen Yow-Ruu Solo Exhibition
Au Sow Yee × Chen Yow-Ruu (Her Lab Space)
Comments on the Finalist
Using the double imagery of “rocking” and “rock,” this exhibition reflects the drifting circumstances of stateless individuals caught in geopolitics. AU Sow Yee and CHEN Yow-Ruu bring narrative momentum from theater into contemporary art, ingeniously blending various forms of storytelling, including news archives, oral recordings from stateless children, miniature scenes, and musical segments. Starting with Malaysian folk legends, the exhibition immerses the audience in soundscapes interlayered with the virtual and the real, reflecting complex issues of borders and identity. In a compact gallery space rich with vocabulary, the exhibition engages the audience’s perception effectively. The two artists display a subtle concern for different states of survival and existence, even blurring the line between documentary records and artistic expression. (Commentator / CHIANG Fu-Ching)
