Ying Yi is an artist and
practicing photographer based in Singapore. His current
interest lies in the exploration of the meaninglessness of
images in relation to the saturation of images in our
digital age where images has become one of our fundamental
forms of communication, perhaps a 3rd language. He focuses
on time-based daily/yearly works with diverse themes
ranging from the skies to intimate landscapes to local
Singapore urbanscapes. He explores issues in relation to
consumerist attitudes, everyday spaces and the existential
nature of the meaninglessness in contemporary cultures. He
is an avid vintage motorcyclist, and views the machine as
an extension of his body that brings different
perspectives of the urban landscapes through sights,
smells and sounds that influences his artworks.
He has specialised in
photography for more than 15 years, focusing on
architectural and urban subjects, where he has images
published in editorials including The Wall Street Journal,
Wallpaper* magazine, Phaidon and worked with various
architects, real estate and financial firms. He holds a MA
in Fine Arts and a BA in Architecture.
