In 2003 she investigated the structures and methodologies of wearable fabrics by focusing on pleats, attracting attention with her sculptural series “the “kwodrent.” Ever since, Tan has continued to return to material, form and structure to produce works that straddle categories such as fine art, assemblage and object. Her dynamic installation works and spatial architecture has meant Tan’s impressive reputation as an artist representative of Singapore has gained momentum both in Japan and overseas in recent years, spreading beyond the realm of fashion.
