Primarily working with painting, photography and sculpture, Anna Ng creates poetic and evocative works imaging urban, natural and architectural environments, as a way of exploring how we navigate and engage with the changing spaces and places around us.
Ng’s imagery forms a play between reality and fantasy. Often rendering the reflective and transparent surfaces of bubbles and glass spheres in and amongst actual environments, she alludes to the way memories or experiences of places constitute our own specific understanding of them.
Currently, Ng is using casting processes with clear resin to create miniature skyscrapers and cars on congested highways. Her transparent city furthers her desire to map both personal, bodily experiences of such spaces while also critiquing the constant human creation and their adaptation to vastly changing urban environments. The lights which bathe this transparent world enhance its almost toylike quality while also signalling a current, but transient inhabitation of these tiny homes and spaces.
