Bio
Dhavinder Singh (b. 1983) is a Kuala Lumpur-based multidisciplinary artist whose practice focuses on repurposing and reconfiguring materials through painting, animation, assemblage, and site-specific installations. His work, guided by intuition, often serves as a visual metaphor for his emotional responses to space and subject matter. Recent solo exhibitions, such as Please Do Not Sit – A Show About Chairs (2022) and Tagistan (2020), reflect his innovative approach to materials and space. Other notable exhibitions include.Test Tanah (2019), Recollectus (2017), and MO: Formal(and)scapes (2014).
