Terence Koh is a conceptually based artist who translates his ideas through a wide variety of media and by synthesizing different art forms. From sculptural installations to theatrical performances, he explores a broad range of subjects, sometimes subtle and at other times intrepid. Often described as baroque because of its ornate detail, but also referred to as post-minimalist due in part to the monochromatic treatment, the work capitalizes on opposing themes. Life and death, purity and perversion, beauty and repulsion, chaos and order, are all topics simultaneously addressed. Ritualistic in its production and evocative in its final presentation, Koh’s work expands the discourse on conceptual art.
