That’s All There Is
PG Lee & Yeo Tze Yang
That Spare Room, Singapore
29 July 2016 - 7 Aug 2016
In the collaborative exhibition That’s All There Is, artists PG Lee and Yeo Tze Yang bypass conventional thematic structures to present a body of work rooted entirely in conversational exchange. Operating as a shared inquiry into the interior lives of the practitioners, the project tracks how casual dialogues can distill heavy existential concerns—such as generational relationships, the passage of time, and mortality—into visual form.
The conceptual core of the show lies in its methodology. By recording, archiving, and publishing their raw correspondence, Lee and Yeo expose the underlying mechanics of artistic collaboration. This process reveals how disparate mediums—Lee’s assembled found objects and Yeo’s realist oil paintings—can navigate the same psychological landscape. The resulting installation rejects grand artistic gestures, focusing instead on an unvarnished look at the immediate, vulnerable boundaries of personal experience.
