SUMMARY:Brandon Tay: Sangkalan
DESCRIPTION:Step into Brandon Tay: Sangkalan\, an evolving installation of a fictional island ecosystem where fragments of a “lost” coastal culture are shaped through three species — a fruit\, an insect\, and a bird. Together\, their rhythms of growth\, flight and song weave a vivid picture of how humans and nature might share perception\, memory\, and meaning.  \nTravelling across four regional libraries in Woodlands\, Tampines\, Jurong and Punggol\, the installation unfolds as a living archive that evolves with each presentation. Visitors can encounter new elements over time\, making each stop a slightly different experience. Through vibrant textiles\, sculptural forms\, and archival materials\, Singaporean artist Brandon Tay translates the island’s collective memories into a language of colour\, geometry\, and symbols. Echoing the decentralised logic of blockchain networks\, Sangkalan invites visitors to reimagine information systems\, their origins and how nature might inspire new ways of sensing\, connecting\, and remembering. \nBrandon Tay: Sangkalan is held in collaboration with the National Library Board. Through the Library showcases\, SAM continues to extend contemporary art beyond traditional museum settings and into civic and community spaces\, encouraging encounters with contemporary art in unexpected and accessible everyday environments. \nVenues: \n\n15 April – 31 May 2026: Woodlands Regional Library\n3 June – 19 July 2026: Tampines Regional Library\n22 July – 6 September 2026: Jurong Regional Library\n9 September – 25 October 2026: Punggol Regional Library

SUMMARY:Singapore International Festival of Arts (SIFA) 2026
DESCRIPTION:Revel in the arts this May through play! The Singapore International Festival of Arts (SIFA)\, Singapore’s pinnacle annual performing arts festival organised by Arts House Group and commissioned by the National Arts Council\, returns from 15 to 30 May with a vibrant constellation of performances\, installations and encounters — from epic productions to engaging\, participatory works. Led by the call-to-action “Let’s Play!”\, SIFA 2026 invites audiences to explore\, experiment\, engage and be inspired by the arts. \nSoak in the Festival vibes at the iconic Festival Village\, which makes its return this edition. Free performances\, public installations and communal spaces featuring local artists such as The Observatory\, The Theatre Practice and Off Root Theatrics welcome festivalgoers from dusk to dawn\, on the Festival grounds and beyond. This year\, SIFA brings two large-scale and high-impact artistic experiences from the Festival Village to Nexus\, Punggol Digital District\, enthralling the community with a soaring aerial performance featuring artists suspended 25 feet in the air\, and a speculative theatrical procession full of colour\, texture\, movement and melody. \nLocal commissioned productions and international works take the stage to bring together a cross collaboration of cultures and disciplines. From spotlighting homegrown cultural icons such as Jacintha Abisheganaden and Dick Lee\, and the reimagining of classics such as Ibsen’s Hedda Gabler by the National Theater Company of Korea\, and Hamlet by Peruvian company Teatro La Plaza and its cast of actors with Down syndrome\, to dance-based productions that blur the lines of reality through holographic technology and stunning stage illusions\, SIFA 2026 opens up multiple pathways and platforms for audiences to rediscover the joy and significance of coming together through art.

SUMMARY:Hiroshi Sugimoto: Form is Emptiness
DESCRIPTION:Singapore Art Museum proudly presents Hiroshi Sugimoto: Form is Emptiness\, the first major solo exhibition in Southeast Asia dedicated to the practice of internationally renowned Japanese artist Hiroshi Sugimoto. Conceived in dialogue with the Buddhist cosmological concept of the Five Elements (Earth\, Water\, Fire\, Wind and Void)\, the exhibition unfolds across five interconnected sections that loop into one another\, mirroring the cyclical rhythms of nature and life. This elemental framework reflects Sugimoto’s enduring inquiry into time\, perception\, and the structure of reality. \nBringing together over 60 works spanning five decades of his multidisciplinary practice\, including significant\, new\, and rarely seen works\, the exhibition reveals the breadth of Sugimoto’s oeuvre across photography\, sculpture\, and large-scale installation. From his meditative seascapes to architectural interventions and contemplative objects\, Sugimoto’s works delicately balance a strong material presence with a deep metaphysical inquiry.  \nForm is Emptiness offers an immersive introduction to the work of one of the world’s most significant contemporary artists. Moving between permanence and impermanence\, visibility and void\, the exhibition invites audiences to slow down and consider how form itself can become a vessel for reflection\, and how\, through Sugimoto’s lens\, the material world becomes a mirror for the mind.

SUMMARY:Ascent to the Bamboo Forest – A Dance Travelogue
DESCRIPTION:Ascent to the Bamboo Forest — A Dance Travelogue serves as a rare window into a hidden geography of Asia: the mystical highlands of Northern Vietnam. \nFollowing a 2025 performance-lecture\, ARTS FISSION dancers Aisha Lozano\, Marveen Lozano\, Andine Elaina\, and Ignatius Sim have since distilled their initial movement vocabulary into a triptych under the guidance of Angela Liong. The work is a deeply personal contemplation of the reverence for the land\, the sincerity of communal rituals\, and the Traditional Ecological Knowledge gleaned from their time among the mountain villagers. \nIn a departure from traditional scoring\, composer Chua Jon-Lin facilitates a kinetic soundscape where the dancers utilise bamboo culms\, leaves\, and organic materials to generate a live\, rhythmic score that breathes with the movement. \nStep into this transformed clearing and witness a quiet beauty—a way of life and an ancestral wisdom standing on the brink of imminent loss.

SUMMARY:Here
DESCRIPTION:A maneater has wreaked havoc on earth since time immemorial\, luring men to their deaths. However\, a complicated relationship between her and a hunter soon sends them on an emotional downward spiral like a cat and mouse game across time. \nInspired by the Southeast Asian folklore of the Penanggalan\, Here is part of Chong Tze Chien’s ongoing research and exploration on the intersection of traditional Southeast Asian puppetry\, The Finger Players’ puppetry methodology\, and the martial art Silat. \nThis work-in-progress showcase comprises two parts – a presentation of the story and a dialogue session between the creatives and audience after the presentation.
