Angelica Ong (she/her) is a Singaporean artist working primarily in photography and bookmaking. Two main aspects of her practice are slow art and language. She is intrigued by ephemera, the human body, everyday subject matter (like trees, birds, eggs, and light), multilingualism, and translation. Effusing fragility and a meditative quality, her work acts as pause, breath, and space, inviting the audience to wander, examine the world closely, and discover monumentality in minutiae. Angelica seeks to decentralize the primacy of the English language through providing titles in multiple languages, which are oftentimes not translations of each other. Ong has exhibited work in solo and group shows at SAIC SITE Sharp Gallery (Chicago), W. Gallery (Chicago), Mana Contemporary (Chicago), and starch (Singapore) and has been named one of the Top 26 to Watch for the Lenscratch Student Prize 2023.
