Born in 1979, Singapore, Yen Phang currently lives and works in both Montreal and Singapore. Yen's life changed drastically after being hospitalized and diagnosed with depression. It was during this period, that Yen's focus turned to art. His drawings and sketches began to be his only form of communication with the outside world.
A continuing thread in Yen's artwork are his investigations into the anxieties of everyday life, be it about how we communicate with each other, our relationships with nature in urban society or our understandings of perception.
His current series of artwork delves into the mind and expresses his inner most feelings. Yen's work can be perceived at times as dark and foreboding and at other times peaceful, serene and periodically even inspirational.
Consolation in this world can be a plethora of things to many people. To some it is their Grandmother's chicken soup, to others it is a warm embrace but for Yen it is in his artwork where he manages to find solace.
Created with the hope of giving comfort to all Yen presents this haunting new work.
