“ Yeo Chee Kiong’s work, A Line, A Door, employs the language and architecture of rooms as metaphors - doors, doorframes, exits and entrances, delimiting and directional lines leading to and from one kind of space to another. The use of geometry (e.g. the square, rectangle, and grid) has gained particular currency as a metaphor for constrictions and enclosures in cultural expressions.
The work that the artist describes as a construction of an “extended (and) a surreal world”, further destabilizes familiar notions of spatial proportion and perspective, while it touches on the human condition in such an environment”
