Trevor Yeung (b.1988, Dongguan, China) graduated from the Academy of Visual Arts at Hong Kong Baptist University in 2010, currently lives and works in Hong Kong. The practice of Trevor Yeung consistently excavates the inner logics of closed systems and the way in which such systems contain and create emotional and behavioural conditions. In his mixed-media works, carefully staged objects, animals, and plants function as aesthetic pretexts which delicately and ironically address notions of artificiality and the processes of human relations.
Major exhibitions include: Courtyard of Attachments, Hong Kong in Venice, 60th International Art Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia, Hong Kong Collateral Event, Venice, Italy (2024); Soft Breath, Para Site, Hong Kong, CN (2024); Soft Ground, Gasworks, London, UK (2023); You Turn Your Back On Me, Galerie Allen, Paris, FR (2022); Not everything is about you, Blindspot Gallery, Hong Kong, CN (2022); There’s something missing, Wontonmeen, Hong Kong, CN (2020); Trevor Yeung: Awkward Introduction, Kohta, Helsinki, FIN (2019); The Darkroom That is Not Dark, Magician Space, Beijing, CN (2016); The Sunset of Last Summer, Blindspot Gallery, HongKong, CN (2016); That Dog at That Party, Gallery EXIT, Hong Kong, CN (2014); Trevor Yeung’s Encyclopedia, Observation Society, Guangzhou, CN (2013).
