金 (Metal) Exhibition

Kien Situ

Overview

In '金 (Metal)', artist Kien Situ transforms the CIW gallery into a striking environment of rupture and reincarnation. The installation brings together Chinese ink, cement, titanium, and incense ash collected from Taoist temple censers in New South Wales, alongside fragments of the artist's earlier works. These materials come together in a suspended, charged space—where opposing forces collide and new forms emerge.

Kien Situ (b.1990) is an architectonic artist whose practice spans sculpture and space. Informed by his diasporic heritage at the juncture of contemporary global cultural theory with ancient Sinospheric philosophy, he explores matter, ruin, distance, numerology, and time in relation to cultural dislocation.
