The Coming Society

                                                                                                                                                                                  

Wai Ip  (they/them) is a Hong Kong conceptual/performance artist currently based in London, whose work examines the impermanent nature of human experience.   As a migrant, they navigates the intricate ontological terrain that is sculpted by the relentless forces of vicinity performing upon us, including geographic dislocation, fluctuating political scenarios, and the swift pace of technological progress. Their artwork not only provokes deep introspection but also acts as a mirror reflecting the myriad challenges and necessary adaptations faced by the identity of artist in our rapidly transforming society. 

Wai’s artwork has been exhibited at galleries and art shows in New York, Hong Kong, Canada, France and across South East Asia. They is currently enrolled in the first year of MFA fine art at Goldsmiths, University of London.

thisspaceintentionallyblank

instagram account, social media posts, blankness
I started the project by opening an Instagram account, "thisspaceintentionallyblank," where blank posts are uploaded daily. Then, I log out of the account and try to engage as little as possible with my social media account.   Collaborator are invited to create the performative emptiness within their instagram account.
