One of our very favourite filmmakers opens a substantial solo show at Camden Arts Centre this Friday, following his win of Emerging Artist Prize 2018 during Frieze London. The prize has led to Wong Ping‘s commission, Heart Digger, which brings together multiple works by the Hong Kong-based artist to be house in bespoke installation environments. “Digitally rendered in a seductive, technicolour language that recalls the modernism of Fernand Leger, the pop languages of Tom Wesselman or Allen Jones, as well as the design aesthetic of The Memphis Group and early 1980s video games, Wong’s simple but seductive animations disguise a deeper social critique of technological modernity,” says the centre.
