About John Clang
Born in 1973 in Singapore and based in New York at present, John Clang is a visual artist working in photography and film. John’s work take on a strong autobiographical undertone, and often feature themes of time, displacement and existence. His style is most identifiable for its blurring or erasing of faces and figures – his popular series “Erasure” (2011) and “Remembering Strangers” (2010) comprised of portraits in which the subject has been erased or cut away from the print. John has participated in more than 20 solo and group exhibitions internationally, and has assembled a high-profile commercial portfolio that includes collaboration with international brands like Hermés, Adidas and IBM. In 2010, John became the first photographer in Singapore to receive the President’s Designer of the Year award – the most prestigious design accolade in Singapore.
