Biography
 In her painting and sculptural practice, Yi To (b. 1995 in Hong Kong, lives and works in London) renders a mental interface of a collective user interface we existed in, where minute building blocks converge and disperse, creating entities that ripple and crosstalk across various points. In such controlled hallucination, she envisions the self as an ever-reproducing embryonic domain and the body as a reservoir of information that intermittently appears, which eventually disappears into the void. Her solo exhibitions were held in Alice Amati, London (2024), and Someday Gallery, New York (2022). Her recent group exhibitions include Newchild Gallery, Antwerp (2023), Lindon & Co., London (2023), Hive Centre for Contemporary Art, Beijing (2023), Deli Gallery, Mexico City (2023), Gallery Vacancy, Shanghai (2022), Someday Gallery, Miami (2022), Indigo + Madder, London (2022), MAMOTH, London (2021), Someday Gallery, New York (2021), Cromwell Place, London (2021), Unit 1 Gallery Workshop, London (2021), Asylum Chapel, London (2021), and Hockney Gallery, Royal College of Art, London (2020). Yi To gained her MA in Painting from Royal College of Art in 2021.
