- Summary
- Erika Tan (born Singapore, 1967) has a background in anthropology, which informs her practice as an artist and curator. Her work is informed by the social, geographical and cultural contexts it is made for, and employs a variety of media to provoke, challenge and stimulate its audiences. Erika Tan's innovative installation 'Pidgin' explores the mutations of languages as they clash, combine and cross-pollinate one into another in today's media-saturated polyglot landscape. The first monograph focusing on Tan's work, this book features contributions from Nikos Papastergiadis, Simon Willmoth and Steven Bode.
