Henry Tan is interested in the erosion of individual beliefs and understandings with regard to contemporary technologies and communication. How can individuals make sense of artistic practices in an era of endlessly circulated memes and ever-shifting boundaries and cultural contexts? Bangkok-based Henry Tan possesses a long history of provocative contributions to local and regional art scenes, alternately subtle and flagrant. His performances for KAOS! night at the now defunct Raindogs Bar & Gallery in Bangkok are legendary and he has created critical interventions at the Hong Kong International Art Fair and Art Stage Singapore. Henry's exhibitions include the Chongqing Youth Biennale in 2011 in China and RADiATION at Dagc Gallery in Manila, 2012.
