Aung-Ko

Artist

Aung-Ko is invited to live and work in the Friche du Palais de Tokyo from March 12 to June 12, 2024. Conceived as a place of welcome, the Friche crosses invitations to give time and space to creators, in direct contact with the institution, its programming and its concerns.

Born 1980 in Yangon (Myanmar), lives and works in Paris.

His sculptures, paintings, videos, installations and performances comment on the social and political instability of his country until the military coup of 2021 forced him into exile. Always interacting with his human and material environment, he invents new assemblages and creates a shared garden for the inhabitants of the Cité internationale des arts, where he is currently in residence.
