EXORCIZE ME


Working with Singapore and Belgium based artist, SooKoon Ang on her most recent art series titled "Exorcize Me" was definitely interesting and exciting for me. 

Exorcize Me is a photograohy and live performance project addressing coming-of-age anxiety, teenage alienation and the confusing phase between childhood and adulthood. The title, Exorcize Me, speaks about the unease within one's own skin and the yearning to get rid of new-fangled fears and unfamiliar emotions. It is also about the seeding of love within a teenager's heart, and, recognises the discomforting facts of a teenager's sexuality. 

Sookoon works with various mediums including video, drawing, installation, and printmaking. 

The finished prints were ultra chrome ink on archival paper and showcased at exhibitions such as The Art IncubatorSingapore Night Festival and the world-renowned Art Stage Singapore.
