In this conversation, Wei Leng Tay and Dr Fang Tze Hsu will discuss how they think about and work with representation in their respective practice. Wei Leng will touch upon past works, such as you think it over slowly, slowly choose… (2018) and The first chapter it begins with the horses (2017-18), and the new works she is developing during the residency, while Fang Tze will expand upon her ongoing research on Taiwanese photo and video artist Kao Chung-li and Okinawan photographer Toyomitsu Higa. Intertwining the points of view of an artist and a researcher/curator, they will challenge each other to reflect upon issues of representation and the subjective entanglements embedded in the process of image-making.]]>

Furthermore, she will initiate a long-term project which extends her preoccupations with forced movements and migrations by addressing notions of “return” through a series of interviews.
