Teo Shi Yun (b. 1999) is a multidisciplinary artist, recent
graduate from Slade School of Fine Arts, UCL. Her work
usually takes the form of photography and filmmaking. She
creates narrative and abstract works that feature historic
documents, archival footages and personal recordings:
visualising how spaces frame communal memory, evoking
themes of reincarnation, dislocation, and return.
Shi Yun is reclaiming her heritage and culture through
documentations and conversations with questions of identity
and diaspora in relation to Singapore’s rapid growth. Through
family history and local mythology, she investigate
fragmented belonging and explore tensions between reality
and dream, memory and delusion.
Her video works have shown at selected film festivals and art exhibitions including her first solo
show at Feelium Gallery, London UK, 2024, IFFR, Rotterdam, 2025, BlackStar Film Festival,
Philadelphia, 2025, National Gallery Singapore, 2025, NOWNESS Asia, Hong Kong, 2024,
