Haegue Yang in conversation with Yung Ma
Join us for a lively discussion with Haegue Yang about her multifaceted practice and the ideas behind her exhibition Leap Year at the Hayward Gallery.
Haegue Yang is one of the leading contemporary artists working internationally today. Her multi-sensory installations and sculptures highlight a range of issues such as labour, migration and displacement.
Leap Year is the first major survey of her work in the UK. It presents a comprehensive study of Yang’s work from the early 2000s to today, highlighting how her artworks resonate on a personal and sensory level while also speaking to social, political and spiritual ideas.
This is a unique opportunity to hear from the artist in conversation with Hayward Gallery Senior Curator Yung Ma.
Ma says: ‘Haegue Yang has consistently sought to expand our perception of what it means to be culturally fluid or socio-politically engaged artistically, creating series after series of works that are at once sensual, expressive and captivating.’
