Selina Ou produces photographs that address the theme of human displacement and isolation within the economic structures of urban life. The 2003 project Pursuits looks at the extension of corporate culture into the realm of leisure. The artist explores how sports such as golf and tennis are settings for rivalry, negotiation, product advertising and networking.

Selina Ou was born in Malaysia in 1977. She currently lives and works in Melbourne. In 2006, Ou was commissioned by the National Portrait Gallery, Canberra, to create a body of work about sport. Ou has had several international residencies and her works have been included in many national and international group exhibitions.
