Notes


KV Duong is a London based artist, born in Vietnam, raised in Canada, and now living as a queer person in Britain. He paints, sculpts, performs, and creates installations, all centred around form and materiality in response to his life experiences. Duong is pursuing an MA in Painting at the Royal College of Art. Recent exhibitions include ‘No Place Like Home’ at the Museum of the Home, and ‘Too Foreign for Home’ at the Migration Museum. 

One night Stand/Meet Me Halfway is a double-sided work using latex. In this work, Duong examines how latex melds and converges with rice paper and various fabrics to create an otherworldly substrate. Latex holds a complex web of connotations deeply rooted in the historical dynamics of rubber plantations during the era of French colonisation in Vietnam. Moreover, latex embodies a queer individual's experience, evoking sexual fantasies and intimacy.
