In his work, Terence Koh mobilizes seduction, lust and desire. These moments exemplify a strategy that integrates a queer, polymorphously perverse approach into art production. The meaning produced by his objects is tightly interwoven with both private narration and a wide range of subcultural fields of association. Koh frequently employs trivial materials, which are then transformed in the artistic process and transposed into an almost classical aesthetic. Terence Koh generiert in seinen Arbeiten Momente der Versuchung, der Lust und des Begehrens. Sie stehen exemplarisch für die Strategie, queere, polymorph perverse Zugänge in die künstlerische Produktion einfließen zu lassen. Die Signifikanz seiner Objekte ist angebunden an private Narration und ein weites Spektrum subkultureller Assoziationsfelder. Dabei verwendet Koh oft triviale Materialien, die durch seinen transformativen Umgang einer nahezu klassischen Ästhetik wieder eingeschrieben werden.
