Ming Wong
Screenings
Watermelon Love

Ming Wong’s video installations explore the intersections of language, identity and performance. In his signature methodology, he "mis-casts" himself as every character in a story - of different genders, ages, races or nationalities. His artistic practice is highly influenced by cinema and is in constant dialogue with measures of performativity, gender, and difference.

The Singapore-born, Berlin-based artist represented Singapore at the 53rd Venice Biennale in 2009 with his solo presentation Life of Imitation, which was awarded a Special Mention.

His work has been shown recently at Dakar Biennale, Senegal; Dhaka Art Summit, Bangladesh; Para Site, Hong Kong; SAVVY Contemporary, Berlin, Centre National de la Danse, Paris; Kampnagl, Hamburg (all 2018).

He has participated in numerous international biennials, including Busan Biennale (2018); Sydney Biennale (2016 & 2010); Asia Pacific Triennial (2015); Shanghai Biennale (2014); Lyon Biennale (2013); Liverpool Biennial (2012); Gwangju Biennale (2010); Performa 11, New York (2010).
