Kang Ouw《侠客行》
All day
Unfolding across the Esplanade Tunnel, Kang Ouw expands upon Boedi Widjaja’s preoccupation with the world of wuxia through Jin Yong’s novel 《侠客行》(Ode to Gallantry). Centred around a system of architectonic-numerical script devised by the artist, the work unfurls through banners, videos, sound and drawings that encode the artist’s multicultural imagination.
Driven by lived experiences of migration and diaspora, the practice of artist Boedi Widjaja articulates subtle reflections on migration, memory, spatial relations and cross-cultural intersections. Trained as an architect and with a background in graphic design, the techniques, materials and tools of drawing have become a defining element of Widjaja’s artistic practice. This is expressed through a broad range of media, from photography and new media to architectural installations and performance art, with an emphasis on process and bodily engagement.
