Artist’s Statement
电子传输门计划：黄荣庭
时间缓慢的流动着。如同呼吸。於往返之间。
立体实物化的「电子像素單位」以單件打印均速为四十小时的传输頻率逐个叠加於「电子传输门」其中，以数码光速缓慢的打印着时空。
记忆如同搜索引擎，无人启动搜尋，就算是处在於数码维度中无限不灭的电子记忆，也終会被遗忘而不复回朔，空自流转於永恒与刹那所交叠的意识流之间。
我以个人活体记忆的残存片断搜索着逝者可度量「一生」的网络影像， 以数码工具重塑其电子实体，再传输回［我］所存在的三维物理世界中，重拾那一段未完成的道谢。
Teleporting Ng Eng Teng is an art project conceived to materialize the digital portrait of the local Pioneer sculptor Mr Ng Eng Teng within the show space over a period of two months. With a set of six 3D printing machines representing the Teleporting Machine Formation, the late Sculptor will be brought back to our physical world from the digital dimension. The project aims to showcase a multi-layer conceptual approach in the application of state-of-art digital tools in contemporary sculpture making, such as the VR presentation of 3D scanned sculpture of Eng Teng from The Teng Collection, the construction of digital portrait of Eng Teng through VR tools, and the animated presentation of his digital portrait on 2D and 3D Hologram (Looking Glass).
To mark NAFA 85th Anniversary and as a gesture of continuity of Eng Teng’s legacy, three “Lego Pixels” to form the “Eye” of Eng Teng (out of the approximated two hundred pieces that make the whole portrait) will be presented as a sculpture in edition for local collector.

Yeo Chee Kiong (b. 1970) is a contemporary sculptor and installation artist who is fascinated with the language and spatial relationship between object, space and authorship. His work destabilises the familiar notions of spatial proportions and perspectives, whilst examining human conditions in the construction of an extended surreal world.
Throughout his career, Yeo has been bestowed with multiple outstanding awards and commendations. This includes: the NAFA Distinguished Alumni Medal for his outstanding achievement in Singapore art scene (2016), SG50 Commemorative Public Sculpture Competition, National Museum of Singapore (2015), and the JTC Green Core Public Sculpture Open Call (2014).
