Yang Jie’s (b.1984, Singapore) practice explores the interconnections between humans, objects and everyday life. With a background in electronic engineering and sculpture, he reinterprets the human experience through found objects and mechanical movements, transforming discarded relics into kinetic sculptures that perform. Recent projects by Yang include Traces and Shadows at the Singapore International Festival of Arts (2024) and the solo exhibition The Waiting Machine, Comma Space (2020). In 2024, he participated in an artist residency at Künstlerhaus Bethanien in Germany.

Lim Soo Ngee (b.1962, Singapore) is one of Singapore’s most notable sculptors.

He has exhibited both in Singapore and internationally and continues to participate in international sculpture symposiums. His works are in the collections of National Gallery Singapore, Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts Singapore, The Ngee Ann Kongsi Singapore and The MaGMA Collection.
