Everything in the world started with a yes. One molecule said yes to another molecule and life was born. But before prehistory there was the prehistory of prehistory and there was never and there was yes. It was always like this. I do not know what, but I know the universe never began.

Hour of the Star (Clarice Lispector)

Happy International Women’s Day! One of my favourite novels is ‘The Hour of The Star’ by Clarice Lispector. I love how strong and badass she was; completely uncompromising when it comes to how she wants to be seen and heard. #BreakTheBias #InternationalWomensDay #ClariceLispector #TheHourOfTheStar #Ahoradaestrela #Star #1977 #IWD2022 (at Rio De Janeiro, Brazil) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca2ES4arpqs/?utm_medium=tumblr

If you have some time over the #weekend please go visit a #painting of mine that's hanging @fostgallery in @gillmanbarracks. It's from the #series #TheHourOfTheStar, the name appropriated from the #novel by #ClariceLispector. I've always thought that painting has less to do with an enquiry about one's identity but much more about thinking about the surfaces that's found outside our bodies. I've been making these paintings, one a year, so they are extremely #layered and almost impossible to #unpack, much like the #data around us. #HemanChong #FostGallery #GillmanBarracks #Singapore #ArchivingSg (at FOST Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuLOuwxl2Ij/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1evjw7qqu3t1v
