The WLG Incubator is an initiative by Wei-Ling Galleries to mentor and collaborate with emerging Malaysian artists, and this year, the artists selected were Anas Afandi and Tang Tze Lye. Over a six-month program, the two artists worked with Malaysian artist Ivan Lam as their mentor to discuss, research, and develop new concepts. The results of this are currently being shown at the WLG Incubator Young Artists Show. We speak with Anas and Tze Lye, as well as the director of Wei-Ling Contemporary, Lim Wei Ling, about the importance of nurturing emerging artists and providing a space for them to both create and reflect on their work.
