ABOUT THE SPEAKERS
Born to a geneticist and horticulturist, Yen Phang delights in nature and the biological as an interface. He was a recipient of the Winston Oh Grant and the Winston Oh Travel Research Award in 2016, and was awarded the Cliftons Art Prize in 2015. His work has been collected by the Singapore High Commission, Malaysia, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Singapore, and British Airways for their lounge at Changi Airport, Singapore.
A Visual Communications graduate and former Creative Director in the advertising world, Elyn Wong founded the Singapore-based womenswear label Stolen in 2006. Her designs are informed by her passion for architecture, particularly the Brutalism movement, and installation art. With a DNA that is 50% fashion and 50% art, Stolen and Elyn religiously build on cross-disciplinary projects that pushes boundaries and genres. Her projects have exhibited in New York, Beijing, London, Milan and Singapore.
Kennie Ting is Director of the Asian Civilisations Museum (ACM) and the Peranakan Museum, and concurrently Group Director of Museums at the National Heritage Board (NHB) Singapore. He has overseen the shift in the ACM’s curatorial approach from a geographical to cross-cultural focus, and from an ethnographic focus to one on decorative arts. He has helmed recent exhibitions on the material culture of cosmopolitan Asian Port Cities and on contemporary Chinese Couture.
