Trevor Yeung: Courtyard of Attachments, Hong Kong in Venice 60th International Art Exhibition

Trevor Yeung: Courtyard of Attachments, Hong Kong in Venice 60th International Art Exhibition

 

Curated by: Olivia Chow

Date: 20 April – 24 November 2024

In Trevor Yeung: Courtyard of Attachments, Hong Kong in Venice, Trevor Yeung explores personal experiences and observations of the relationships between humans and aquatic ecosystems. He draws from references that include his father’s seafood restaurant, pet shops, feng shui arrangements, and his childhood pet fish companions. In landscapes of fishless aquariums, Yeung places longing, desire, and power on display. His works contemplate absence and attachment as a way to comment on the systems that structure our lives while alluding to the current climate crisis. The exhibition invites us to consider the emotional disconnect and power dynamics that characterise society today.

 

An adapted exhibition will be on view in 2025 at M+ and will mark the second return exhibition to be presented at M+ since its opening in 2021.
