In 2010, Green Zeng made a return to art-making after a long hiatus. Since then, he has created a variety of original and though-provoking works, most notably the series entitled 'Malayan Exchange', 'An Exile Revisits the City', 'Chinese School Lessons', 'Shifting Dioramas and Television Confessions'. His practice explores issues of historiography and identity; the history of student activism; the left and communism; political detainees and exiles in Singapore; and the connection between the archives, the state and the individual.

The exhibition presents works from his previous series that have not been exhibited before. They comprise studies, experiments with unrealised ideas, and remixes of works through the use of methods like layering, repetition, sequencing, erasure and juxtaposition. The result is a surprising and fresh take on his own work, creating an interesting dialogue between the artist and himself, and with his audience.

To celebrate reaching the 10-year milestone of his practice, Green Zeng has also published a book to consolidate his works from 2010-2020, including essays by friends and writers who are familiar with his art practice.

Contrary to a review show being one of looking back, the exhibition and book are a reminder of how forward-looking Green Zeng's work has always been, and how engaging with it moves us into the future.
