H Gallery is very pleased to announce a n exhibition of two artists who explore the urban environment in radic al contrast. Singapore-based Michael Lee creates cool, analytical rend erings of lost, destroyed and impossible cities, examining these sites as sources of individual desires, fantasy and collective memory and n eed. Olivier Pin-Fat’s photographs of his adopted home of Bangkok ar e inflected by drug-induced visions, a profound sense of the animistic , and disruptions of the photographic surface. While Lee dissects ethe real knowledge of places and spaces, Pin-Fat registers the outer reach es of subjective experience. At some point, the works of both artists meet.Songs of the City most immediately suggests how forms of represen tation and image-making can demarcate a distinction between functional understandings and wild experience. However, while this exhibition ex plores dissonances and tensions between different forms, the linking o f Lee and Pin-Fat essentially maps intersections and idiosyncrasies th at explode exclusive worldviews. Songs of the City faces the terms by which our architectural structures and environments can reflect and ac commodate our sense of self, and being. Lee re-imagines the limits tha t Pin-Fat dissipates. What emerges is a sense of experience and unders tanding as one and the same for the structures that frame our lives.Bo th artists will provide a tour of Songs of the City on Saturday, Octob er 15 from 2pmMichael Lee is rapidly developing an international reput ation as an artist of note. He also works as a curator and his practic e generally addresses representations of the built environment in term s of objects, diagrams, situations, and text.
