He was Director of Arts and full Professor of Visual Arts at Yale-National University of Singapore, a Visiting Professor at KCUA Kyoto, and Erasmus Fellow at Uni-Arts Helsinki in 2019. His work explores the anomalies and phenomenological strangeness of our optical experience, with ideas drawn from scientific and philosophical concepts of physical light.
