Working primarily with photography and installation, Chong Kwan creates fantastical landscapes and environments consisting primarily of waste materials.

Existing somewhere between imagination and reality, her immersive arrangements create beauty and give attention and use to otherwise discarded, unimportant objects.

She focuses on competing notions of landscape and highlights collective histories and the ambiguous relationship between reality, appropriation, the detoured implications of fictional contemporary mechanisms and latter day myths in relation to urban development, master planning and waste.

Her large-scale mise-en-scene environments and photographs created out of waste products, found materials and documentary sources, are often sited in the public realm.
