LOY Contemporary Art Gallery is proud to present The Roots You Gave Me, the Wings I’ve Found, a solo exhibition by Singaporean artist Benedict Yu. This exhibition marks a significant moment, as LOY welcomes Yu as the first local artist to exhibit prior to our SG60 programme, which will spotlight a diverse group of local talent. The exhibition will feature new works by the artist as well as a curated selection of his most significant works, tracing the spiritual and multicultural threads that define his artistic journey.
The exhibition title, The Roots You Gave Me, the Wings I’ve Found, draws from a personal and reflective letter from the artist to his aging parents in Taiwan. It is a meditation on love, memory, and the evolving nature of connection in a digital world. Navigating the challenges of being physically distant while emotionally present, the artist employs Virtual Reality (VR) and Extended Reality (XR) as new languages for familial storytelling.
