Dawn Ng is a multi-disciplinary visual artist, who has worked across a breadth of mediums, motifs, and scale, including sculpture, photography, light, film, collage, painting and large scale installations. Her practice deals with time, memory and the ephemeral. Often characterized by lyricism and a nuanced use of colour, her work has been acquired by the Singapore Art Museum, and exhibited at the Musee d’art contemporain de Lyon, the Jeju Biennale (2017), and the Lille3000 art festival, France. She has had solos in Art Basel Hong Kong and the Art Paris Art Fair, and shown in London, Sydney, Seoul, Shanghai, and Jakarta.
Ng has been commissioned by the Hermès Foundation (2016), the ArtScience Museum (2019), Asian Civilisations Museum (2020), and most recently by National Gallery Singapore (2023) and the UBS Art Collection to create an immersive installation for the UBS Lounge at the inaugural ART SG (2023).
