Art is Dead. 2003
Installation at SPACE[S]
The work mourns the death/loss of art (history) in Malaysia, as Chai reflects on the lack of documentation and studies of earlier Chinese artists, groups, studios and galleries in Malaysia. Their names were written on rice paper with specific numerical values, and then hung as one does for a Taoist funeral.
