Ghislaine Leung is a British conceptual artist. Her work uses score-based instructions to radically redistribute and constitute the terms of artistic production. For Leung, limitations, felt as personal, institutional, structural or systemic to the parameters of industry, are engaged in as means to institute differently. Born in Stockholm, Sweden to a father from Hong Kong and a mother from London, she was raised first in Reims, France and then in London, England. She received a BA Fine Art in Context at the University of the West of England in 2002 and a Masters in Aesthetics and Art Theory at the Centre for Research in Modern European Philosophy at Middlesex University in 2009. Between 2004 and 2014 she worked at Tate and LUX, London. Leung’s first book was Partners (Cell Project Space, 2018). She lives in London, UK.

Bosses
Ghislaine Leung
Ghislaine Leung articulates an art practice, a life, and the necessity to act within a system of limitations. As an artist how can you get out of the hiding position? Her blocks are taken as raw material. To make art is to understand how you are, notice your prejudices and assumptions about value and acknowledge your hand in an unequal world, to recognise how you institute yourself while letting go of the outcome of work. Value is often internalised and mistaken as a positive quality: why does one seek again and again to exploit oneself? Poetic and close up, to the child and to the world, there is proximity without distance. Embodied, deep, with many entry points for the reader, Bosses is Leung’s matrix of motherhood, authorship, self-employment, dependency, love and action.

About the author
Luce deLire is a ship with eight sails and she lays off the quay. A time traveller and collector of mediocre jokes by day, when night falls, she turns into a philosopher, performer and media theorist. She loves visual art, installations, video art, etc. She could be seen curating, performing, directing, planning and publishing (on) various events. She is working on and with the philosophy of treason, infinity, post-secularism, self-destruction, fascism and seduction – all in mixed media.
