In a conversation, curators Julia M. White and Yi Yi Mon (Rosaline) Kyo guide the audience through Wesley Tongson’s solo exhibition Singing and Dancing with Brush and Ink: The Art of Wesley Tongson at Asia Society.
Curators Julia M. White and Yi Yi Mon (Rosaline) Kyo explore the exhibition's key themes through selected works, offering insights into Hong Kong experimental ink artist Wesley Tongson's practice. Spiritual inquiry shaped his approach to ink, forging a distinctive artistic language, and consider how his sustained engagement with ink and diverse spiritual philosophies became a vital means of articulating mental-health struggles and questions of gender identity.
