Sin Wai Kin

Sin Wai Kin, formerly known as Victoria Sin, is a London-based artist who uses performance, moving image, writing, and print to explore and subvert normative processes of desire, identification, and objectification. Their work employs speculative fiction to challenge conventional modes of representation and to reimagine the possibilities of embodiment. Sin's practice involves using drag as a means of purposeful embodiment and questioning the ideal images and social expectations that are ascribed to bodies. Their work explores the often unsettling experiences of the physical within the social body, drawing from personal encounters with looking and wanting.

Sin's work has been shown at numerous international institutions, including the Centre d'Art Contemporain Genève, Tai Kwun Contemporary, and Para Site in Hong Kong, the Guggenheim in New York, and the Hayward Gallery and Tate Modern in London. They were nominated for the Turner Prize in 2022 and will present a solo exhibition at Fondazione Memmo in Rome in 2023.
