Galerie Chantal Crousel wishes to congratulate Haegue Yang as the winner of the Benesse Prize. The 13th Benesse Prize was presented in collaboration with Singapore Art Museum, the organizer of Singapore Biennale 2022.

This distinction offers the artist the admiration and the financial means to pursue her life’s work, along with a commission to create an artwork to be exhibited at Benesse Art Site Naoshima, Japan, or the opportunity to have her works collected at the Site.

Yang’s practice spans a wide range of media, from paper collage to performative sculpture and large-scale installations, often featuring everyday objects, in addition to labor-intensive woven sculpture.
