      SHARON CHIN (b. 1980), Benua Dalam II, 2005, transfer & collage on paper

      Est: RM3,000 - RM5,000

      SHARON CHIN b. Kuala Lumpur, 1980 BENUA DALAM II, 2005 Transfer and collage on paper 49cm x 73cm Benua Dalam II (Inside Continent II) is an abstract piece executed in the same minimal manner as My Island Inside but with the insertion of various quotations from nine authors, writers, poets, play writers, revolutionary and even an Indonesian alternative rock band namely Lewis Carroll, Leon Trotsky, Salleh Ben Joned, Lee Kok Liang, Anais Nin, William Shakespeare, Paul Auster, Yukio Mishima and Sheila on 7. A significant association between these diverse individuals (and group) from different generations can be traced to their literature background. Sharon Chin has gained regional exposure through her iconic interactive public art which gathered the participation of 100 men, women and children dressed in colourful sarong wraps, drenching themselves in plastic tubs of water in a mass Mandi Bunga (flower bath), a 10-minute performance art piece held at the lawn of National Museum in Singapore in 2013.

      SHARON CHIN (b. 1980), My Island Inside, 2005, collage on paper

      Est: RM3,000 - RM5,000

      SHARON CHIN b. Kuala Lumpur, 1980 MY ISLAND INSIDE, 2005 Collage on paper 48cm x 72cm Sharon Chin makes her first appearance at Henry Butcher Art Auctioneers auction with a minimalist abstract collage work titled My Island Inside. Purple ink bloats are sporadically applied on translucent washes of organic shapes echoing the opaque forms that mark the white sheet of paper. An instinctive work, this emblematic piece is devoid of narrative that radiates an air of obscurity. Sharon Chin obtained a Bachelor in Fine Art degree from the Elam School of Fine Arts in Auckland, New Zealand. She then attended the Victorian College of the Arts in Melbourne, Australia focusing on sculpture. She has participated in various group exhibitions namely the Second beyond Pressure International Performance Art Festivalheld in Myanmar in 2009; Negotiating Home History and Nation held at Singapore Art Museum (2010); Incheon Women's Art Biennale in South Korea (2009) and All Together Now: Conversations without End held in Kuala Lumpur (2010). In 2012, Sharon contributed to the Esquire Malaysia Media Art Project, which travelled throughout Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore. Her prolific collaborative performance and installation titled Mandi Bunga was held and displayed at the fourth Singapore Biennale themed If the World Changed in 2013. She founded Arteri (2009 - 2011), a website specializing in art and culture in Malaysia and Southeast Asia, co-founder of Buka Kolektif, a group dedicated to advancing performance art in Malaysia and writing plenty of published essays and reviews on Malaysian art. Sharon Chin engages in political discourse through her multimedia and performance works.
