Bart Seng Wen Long (SG)

Bart Seng Wen Long is an artist, filmmaker and independent curator based in London, working with moving images, photographic mediums, expanded cinema and performance. Bart is interested in confrontations between reality and fantasy, and how, in the heat of those encounters, they reveal the interconnectedness of things within the political economy of desire. (Mis)translating such encounters through autofictional role-playing, S&M poetics, fetish theories and experimental storytelling strategies, his works insists on unexpected potentials to be found alongside frictions and stubborn relations obscured in ossified systems.

Currently a KONE Foundation grant awardee, Bart was a finalist for the Dazed x CIRCA award and a Tour de Moon film commission grantee. Aside from his artistic practice, he is co-curator of Kawaii Agency along with Juliusz Grabianski since 2021, a programmer for Queer East’s Expanded strand since 2023, and a producer of several multi-disciplinary art events.
