In this show, five artists from the Asian Pacific Rim look at globalisation’s brutal effects on their region. The buildings of Kuala Lumpur, reconstructed in three-dimensional photo-collages by Liew Kung Yu, become laughable objects. Hernan Chong and Cao Fei, from Singapore and Guangzhou respectively, use digitally produced cinematographic storyboards to describe the exciting, if confusing experiences of the new urban generations. Chen Chieh-jeh scans himself into photographs of important moments in recent Chinese and Taiwanese history while Beijing-based Zhu Jia presents metaphorical video scenes of everyday life.
