Sharon Chin (b.1980, Petaling Jaya) is an artist, curator and activist who locates the body as a space of action to negotiate codified systems of place, history and language. Working across a variety of media such as performance, installation, sculpture, drawings and text, Chin produces work that is often simultaneously political, performative and personal. Her work has been exhibited locally and internationally, including at A+ Works of Art (Malaysia, 2018), Chan + Hori Contemporary (Singapore, 2017), the Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art (Brisbane, 2015) and the Singapore Biennale (2013). Her work is in the permanent collections of Singapore Art Museum and Queensland Art Gallery | Gallery of Modern Art (QAGOMA).
