Cloud Island 🏝 Fiona Tan
This 45 minute film depicts the small island of Inujima which is located in Japan’s Seto Inland Sea. Inujima is in many ways exemplary of Japan’s last 400 years of industrialization. Once an island of fishermen and farmers, Inujima then became a place of granite quarries and copper refineries. Now all the works stand empty; the quarries filled with water, factory chimneys crumbling. The island’s aged population has dwindled to around fifty people who continue their day-to-day lives in this evocative and rather neglected place where clipped trees and well tended allotments stand next to abandoned homes.
Island 🏝 Fiona Tan
The work of Fiona Tan, with its characteristic visual richness and singular temporalities, examines complex issues such as the relationship between personal and collective history, the role of memory and the existence of the past in the present.
Filmed on the Swedish island of Gotland, "Island" (2008) explores the relationship between the moving image and memory, which are capable of transporting us to different places and times. A voice-over relates the story of a woman who came to the island to be alone, for a period of temporary retreat. The narrator discloses the intimate thoughts of this absent figure, her distant memories, her desire for exile, her often ambiguous relationship with the world and with time.

Fiona Tan Elsewhere, 2018 Presented by Frith Street, London and Peter Freeman, Inc., New York City Dystopias abound in current pop culture. Whether including zombies, natural catastrophes, or repressive theocracies, they have overtaken utopias as the most discussed - and sometimes probable - future prospects. In her work Elsewhere (2018), Dutch-Indonesian artist Fiona Tan interrogates the potential contradictions and intersections between these two speculative approaches. Inspired by classics of utopian literature such as Tommaso Campanella’s The City of the Sun (1623), Tan has written her own concept of this age-old idea, combining it with a Los Angeles panorama characterized by the city’s most unpleasant aspects: traffic and pollution. This gesture is, however, not motivated by irony or sarcasm; it rather seeks to interrogate the ambiguous qualities of utopian thought, chiefly its lack of consideration for reality and human nature. Elsewhere will be presented in Basel by London’s Frith Street Gallery and New York City’s Peter Freeman, Inc.
Fiona Tan 'Laps of memory' #fionatan #tlvmuseum #henry #brightonpalace (at מוזיאון תל אביב לאמנות)
One of the things that bothered me about the whole multicultural/post-colonial discussion in art is that it became a discussion only about politics and political positions, particularly during the last decade of the last century. The visual side of things was too often neglected. Images (and as an artist I consider myself an image-maker), their role, their importance, their ambiguities seemed to play too minor a role.
