符芳俊|Hoo Fan-Chon
是一位視覺藝術實踐者,作品橫跨繪畫、雕塑、攝影與電影等媒材。他以研究為導向的創作重新詮釋日常生活,運用諷刺和幽默檢視文化間價值系統的波動,同時質疑文化真實性的概念。成長於巴拉勿(Pulau Ketam),一個位於巴生海岸的漁村,符芳俊對魚有著特別的親近感,這也成為他藝術作品中的反覆出現的主題。
Hoo Fan Chon (b. Selangor; based in George Town) is a Malaysian visual arts practitioner working across the mediums of painting, sculpture, photography, and film. His research-driven projects reframe everyday life with irony and wry humour, examining how our value systems fluctuate between cultures while interrogating notions of cultural authenticity. Growing up in Pulau Ketam, a fishing village off the coast of Klang, Hoo has an affinity with fish, which has become a recurring motif in his artwork.
