A collaborative project by four visual artists working at the studio space of (participating artist) Victor Tan, unit L403
at Telok Kurau Studios.
Project Description
The Space - Visual artist Victor Tan, his studio space at Telok Kurau Studios is the subject of this collaborative project.
The unit of his studio is L403, which also bear the title of the project. The studio is a work place, a storeroom,
a space to temporarily and informally show artworks. It is contextual that in its raw conditions, the studio is always
in a state of flux. The freedom for experimentation and terms of execution seem to hold no boundaries for the artists
in the project, which paradoxically, the studio itself is limited by its own boundary as a 'square box', confined in
concrete.
The Collaboration -
The four artists come together with a kindred interest in looking for another way of conceptualizing, working,
and presenting their works in a specific space of bound conditions. The studio, in an administrated visual
art studio housing, offers a challenge to the artists in its state of self-containment.
Artists' Works
All four artists practice their art in different media and forms, and work with different concepts and methodologies.
Their works will be presented simultaneously, in process or in lapses of time in L403. For Project L403, the artists
are free to use their desired media and continue from their own methods and practices and extend from their existing
concepts in their work to the context of the studio.
