Red Hong Yi
Red Hong Yi is a contemporary Malaysian artist widely recognised for her practice composing everyday, often overlooked materials into intricate, large-scale installations. Through the labor-intensive processes of accumulation and aggregation, she reimagines the mundane, amalgamating the domestic and the disposable into visually arresting compositions that occupy the space between sculpture and narrative image-making.
By bridging traditional craftsmanship with digital tools, Hong Yi probes how the act of repetition can generate rhythm and shared human experience. Her works often engage sensibilities of home, memory, and belonging, while more recently addressing the developing journey of motherhood. Based in Kuala Lumpur, she leads Studio Red Hong Yi, a collaborative creative space. Her work has been exhibited globally at prestigious venues including the World Economic Forum in Davos, Saatchi Gallery in London, the National Art Gallery of Malaysia, and the Anchorage Museum in Alaska.
