This quiet, pensive man has been a friend and a mentor for the past 20 years. I don’t think my practice is ever possible without his early influence on the way I think about surfaces, objects and language. His ways of seeing are infused with so many performative gestures; you are always in transit when you are looking and thinking about his work. If you live in Singapore, you should check out his work at #PotongPasirMRT. It is the single most thoughtful, most engaged series of works ever installed in a subway station. You are always in transit. #MatthewNgui (at Potong Pasir MRT) https://www.instagram.com/p/CH1uz9HFkhb/?igshid=15bld117ydear
