Artist Bio
Originally from Thailand, Thanchanog Ho Mai Chin is currently a multidisciplinary artist based in Singapore. Her citizenship renunciation and migration history have compelled her to work around the theme of identity. Traversing autobiography and memories, Mai Chin is intrigued to explore the notion of time, and consciousness employing light as the constant medium in her work.
​

Recently, she was selected for a funded digital residency by Syntropy States to produce a video art 'underwater', Syntropy app, 2022.

In 2021, her work 'Suburbia' video series has been exhibited at 'Mixing Identities', THE LINE London, England, and subsequently at 'Fragmented Identities' THE ROOM & Palazzo Albrizzi-Capello, Venice, Italy during the Venice Biennale.
