     (b.1997, Singapore) |



Tan Wei [Singapore, b. 1997] is a visual artist who works spatially across a diverse breadth of mediums and depth ranging from conceptual to installation art. Rooted in her practice of storytelling, her art practice focuses on the fundamental construct of our reality and being that she experiences as part of the ordinaries in everyday living.


Through the reconstruction of her observations in everyday living, she hopes to invite audiences into the ever mani-fold theatre of the mind to consider, the ways in which we may be similar or otherwise, differ. Where she seek ultimately, to create works that would strike a resonating chord with the audience or otherwise, sets the stage for the audience to contemplate upon the synchronicity or lack thereof within otherwise mundane living experiences.
