MAG. Sheungyan Moka BAStudied Fine Art at Wimbledon College of Arts in in London. Continuing further study and research in University of Applied Art Vienna, Austria shortly after making her completing bachelor exhibition.

    Her works and research include a variety of materials; oil painting on canvas, photography, sculpture, fashion, and installation as well as motion pictures. Her fascination of dolls and mannequins stem into the interests of psychological observation of the ''Uncanny''. Creating a sense of discomfort, viewer are caught in-between a dialogue of an distress situation when engaging with the fragmented forms

    The fragmented display of the body parts, resembling Han Bellmer's notorious dolls; serve their individual understanding, as each fragment on its own creates a language of transformation, representing forms in the processes of becoming.

    The faces of these forms are disguised in masks stringing along metaphors of the concealed and revealed, creating a platform of imagination to release themselves from the oppressive aspects of society.  The masks hiding motives, left audience interact with the installation and misused by their mystery. The audience embrace this feeling of displeasure, the uncanny, allowing suppressed memories to be visualise.
