Chinese museum visitors accuse artist Heman Chong of ‘cyber harassment’
A group of Chinese museum visitors has filed a formal complaint against Singapore-based artist Heman Chong, accusing him of cyber harassment. The visitors allege that Chong reposted their selfies from his exhibition "The Endless Summer" at UCCA Dune on his Instagram account with captions that mocked them for narcissism and appropriating his work. The complaint cites China's portrait rights law, which prohibits using recognizable images of individuals without consent, and also accuses Chong of gender-based targeting for only reposting images of women. The visitors demand a formal apology from Chong and joint action from UCCA Dune and the Aranya resort.
