Exhibition Sung Tieu
Tours and workshops for schoolchildren
Sorted
Which organizing systems shape our everyday lives? Where is order an advantage and where a disadvantage?
In a dialogical tour through the exhibition, we explore the tension between order and chaos in the works of artist Sung Tieu. It is about measurement, systems of order and the resulting injustices, e.g. when power is unequally distributed.
In the practical part, abstract works on graph paper can be used to test drawing precision or chaotic, wild gestures can defy the same drawing or painting surface.

Fact and fiction
Where do fact and fiction meet in Sung Tieu's works? How does this tension influence our aesthetic perception? In a dialogical tour of the exhibition, we will explore where the artist works with facts, what research her works are based on and how she weaves them into her own narratives. In the subsequent workshop, we can try out our own fictional writing through Ecriture Automatique and, in the next step, integrate it into the design logic of newspaper articles. Finally, corresponding images can be developed by drawing, painting or photography.
