DECK’s inaugural Artist-in-Residence (A.i.R.) marks its completion with the launch of a solo exhibition by Singaporean artist Liana Yang. Titled “The Two of Them”, the showcase presents experimental works and ideas fomented during her residency.
The exhibition consists of three other bodies of work — “Drinking Lovers’ Spit” (2013), “Forever is a Long Time” (2014) and “Year 0” (2015). The exhibition, which seamlessly switches lenses between the personal and the sociological, examines the subtleties, nuances, contradictions and pitfalls of modern romantic relationships. Combining installation with photography, the works seek to push the boundaries of image creation and presentation.
Yang says: ‘I hope to unravel the construct of romance and the human conditions that bind couples romantically. In a way the show is also to encourage a discourse on the unconventional wisdoms that are likely to arise from what people have come to call ‘love’.’
This exhibition runs from 17 Oct – 4 Nov 2015 at DECK. Opening Hours: Tue – Sat 12pm to 7pm, Sun 12pm to 5pm. The exhibition is closed on Mon & PH. There will also be an Artist Residency Tour & Talk on 24 October (Saturday), 3pm. Register for the talk [here](http://tinyurl.com/the2ofthemtalk).
