To prepare for his exhibition at ICA Miami, Hong Kong-based artist Wong Ping seeks the advice of fortune-tellers from Temple Street Night Market.
With a signature style that is both psychedelic and provocative and narratives that are richly symbolic, engaging and absurd, Wong Ping creates episodic cinematic tales that are profoundly universal, while often deeply psychological and personal. Wong’s animated videos and installations humorously allegorize contemporary issues of sexuality, culture, politics, and power. Often alluding to fable and fiction, adopting narrative forms such as the detective novel and creating anthropomorphic characters, Wong’s visual language exposes crude realities while offering a space for reflection through fantasy, humor and shared experience.
