Trevor Yeung (CN, 1988)
Residency period: November 2025
Based in Hong Kong, Trevor Yeung uses botanic ecology, horticulture, aquarium system and installations as metaphors that reference the emancipation of everyday aspirations towards human relationships. Yeung draws inspiration from intimate and personal experiences, culminating in works that range from image-based works to large-scale installations. He creates different scales of systems which explore the logic that govern our social structures.
Yeung represented Hong Kong in a Collateral Event at the 60th Venice Biennale in 2024. He had a touring solo exhibition that travelled to Gasworks (London, 2023), Para Site (Hong Kong, 2024) and Aranya Art Center (Beidaihe, 2024). He also exhibited in institutions and biennales, including Kestner Gesellschaft (Hannover, 2025), Hong Kong Museum of Art (Hong Kong, 2025), Lahore Biennale (Lahore, 2024), Biennale of Sydney (Sydney, 2024), Blank Canvas (Penang, 2023), Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris (Paris, 2022), Kathmandu Triennale (Kathmandu, 2022), Jameel Arts Center (Dubai, 2022) and Singapore Biennale (Singapore, 2022), among others.
