Chris Chan Chong Fui  lives and works in Kuala Lumpur, and is the first Malaysian artist to present work at the Hirshhorn. In “BLOCK B,” (2008), a motionless camera watches night and day as dramas unfold on the various floors of a massive apartment complex in Malaysia. Chong captures this home to Indian expatriates working on temporary contracts, as if it is a documentary, with no special effects or lighting. He directs the viewers’ focus to realistic details within this fictionalized microcosm of urban humanity via imaginary voice-overs.
