Kar-men Cheng
LASALLE's MA Fine Arts Programme was Kar-men Cheng’s first formal foray into a studio practice. This venture into art was motivated by her need for an open-ended space to define research and combine critical analysis with storytelling and chance. Extending her previous research on everyday power dynamics, Kar-men peruses different modes of communication to uncover links between identity formation, interaction and language.
