Helena Tan works with sculpture and writing. Her practice is informed by contemporary socio-cultural symbols and signifiers, exploring how systems are constructed, exoticised, and appropriated over time. In addition to co-organising ‘Valar,’ an artist residency on the island of Gotland, Sweden, her work has been exhibited at Kulturhuset Stadsteatern (SE); Salzburger Kunstverein (AT); Haus Wien (AT); bologna.cc (NL); and the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam (NL), among others.
