Song is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice is an ever-evolving exercise in world-building, informed by personal ancestral mythologies, Daoism, diasporic-futurism, family ritual, more-than-human politics, and science fact-fiction.
Tramway’s vast gallery space has been transformed into a sub-aquatic world shaped according to the ancestral logics of the Song family, which serves simultaneously as a spectacle, a memorial and a refuge. Weaving history, memory and imagination, the project will immerse visitors in a phantasmagoric watery abyss populated by ancestral characters.
The exhibition includes an array of newly commissioned artworks in sculpture, textiles, printmaking, sound, light and moving image. These artworks are entangled in the architectural embrace of an immense, ethereal creature which stretches out across the gallery space, drawn from the artist’s own heritage and family mythology.
