We are delighted to announce Wong Ping’s presentation in the Sigg Prize 2025 exhibition.

Wong Ping’s new video installation Debts in the Wind (2025) is a toy-like playhouse setting, with artificial turf and a rooftop flagpole interrupting the space. Set on a golf course, the video follows ten characters, including a wealthy golfer, secret lovers, and an ancient tree. The film is voiced entirely by Wong, whose dialogue combines absurd humour with thought-provoking insights. Wong’s narration reveals the subtle relationships between these characters and delves into themes of violence, power, desire, and absence.

“…Today’s weather is unusually calm. Golf is one of the few sports that cooperates heavily with the wind. Players think it’s their skill but it’s really the wind doing its tricks. If the wind is gambling that day, strange gusts would sweep through the course.” – Wong Ping
