                                                    Tiffany Chan (b. 2003, Hong Kong) recently graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from The Chinese University of Hong Kong. Chan's paintings weave together daydreams, personal memories, cultural heritage, and historical relics into surreal, contemplative narratives. Drawing on East and Southeast Asian art history, she layers symbolic imagery, bridging tangible and intangible realities. Through repeated layering, retracing, and erasing, Chan explores nihilism's inherent meaninglessness, transforming collected images of artifacts and paintings into ambiguous works. The work "Circus", encourages viewers to reconsider manipulated historical narratives, incorporating luxurious imagery and luminous brushstrokes inspired by Johann Melchior Dinglinger.
