SUMMARY:City Lines
DESCRIPTION:Singapore’s urban landscape is constantly evolving. City Lines showcases ten artists whose work examines the invisible lines that connect people to their surroundings—the emotional and psychological aspects of the city that go beyond its visible architecture. From the quiet beauty of watercolour cityscapes to digital takes on architecture\, and poetic views of urban life\, City Lines showcases the rhythm of Singapore’s spaces. Beyond capturing façades—the shophouse\, housing estate and urban forms\, the exhibition tells a story of the artists’ connection with the city\, the past and the present\, real and imagined. \nARTISTS\nAndrew Huang\nHeiko Schulze\nIdris Ali\nJeffrey Wandly\nKay Saputra\nMasturah Sha’ari\nMayang Sari\nSyazana Yassin\nTerence Tan\nYeo Jian Long \nHeld at Maya Gallery from 11 January to 11 February 2026\, City Lines will be part of the Singapore Art Week.

SUMMARY:Elia Nurvista and Bagus Pandega: Nafasan Bumi ~ An Endless Harvest
DESCRIPTION:Artists Elia Nurvista and Bagus Pandega explore how the demands of a relentless extraction\, from plantations to electric futures\, cast a shadow on the very “breath of the Earth.” \nElia Nurvista and Bagus Pandega: Nafasan Bumi ~ An Endless Harvest imagines the afterlives of materials that persist long after their use\, outlasting our time in this age of excess. Plantations\, mining sites\, and the promise of electric vehicle technologies become places where the stories of tomorrow are formed\, bound by Indonesia’s extractive economies whose resources sustain the pulse of today’s global demand. \nFrom the need for oxygen to nickel’s role in lithium-ion technologies\, from the cutting down of forests to palm oil’s many applications\, these materials represent the state of the Earth’s breath (Nafasan Bumi) today\, strained by extraction. The planet’s natural rhythms no longer move freely but are drawn into the labour of industry\, breathing through the exhaustion of a harvest that never ends. \nAcross the exhibition\, labour appears as both memory and speculation\, a rhythm shared by humans\, machines\, and the living world. Conveyor belts\, once emblems of the industrial revolution and the mechanisation of labour\, now hum to the pulse of tropical plants\, creating a continuous cycle of productivity. Nearby\, sculptures cast in palm oil wax evoke the stillness of carved stone yet resist ideals of perfection\, creating a dreamscape haunted by plantation residues. Others\, made from discarded palm waste\, hold the tension between fragility and endurance. \nTogether\, these artworks trace how human and non-human life have been enmeshed in cycles of ceaseless pursuit of productivity\, asking: What will the future shaped by these material conditions? Like the recurring haze that engulfs Indonesia\, Singapore\, and Malaysia during the southwest monsoon\, the Earth’s breath\, shadowed by an endless harvest\, lingers as a reminder of what extraction conceals and refuses to let us forget. ~

SUMMARY:From One Sky to Another by Melissa Tan
DESCRIPTION:Haridas Contemporary is thrilled to present Melissa Tan’s (b. 1989\, Singapore) upcoming solo exhibition in which she debuts a new series of paintings. Tan is known for her intricately detailed metal and resin sculptures\, with which she explores her long-standing interests in celestial mapping and mythology. In this new chapter — inspired by an etymological understanding of the word ‘map’\, which in old Latin referred to a piece of cloth — Tan unfolds her stories from the scintillant planes of her sculptures\, and transports them to vivid new worlds on canvas\, where hidden maps of constellations hint at a shifting landscape and story. \nIn marked contrast to the elegant and steely glint characteristic of Tan’s past exhibitions\, From One Sky To Another unfolds in vivid colour. Once incised into metal\, Tan’s cast of characters and their stories now inhabit worlds of flesh\, land\, water\, and sky. The palette of this series\, ranging from earthy autumnal hues to crisp and clear blues\, brings to mind the works of Renaissance masters such as Botticelli and Titian\, both of whom Tan referenced for their representations of Greek gods and goddesses. In other works\, looser brushwork and luminous colours recall the paintings of the Symbolists\, imparting an enigmatic cast to the subject matter.

SUMMARY:Metamorphosis: Curated by Syed Muhammad Hafiz | Featuring Jaafar Latiff\, Anniketyni Madian\, Meta Enjelita and Khairulddin Wahab
DESCRIPTION:Cuturi Gallery is delighted to present Metamorphosis\, curated by independent curator and art historian Syed Muhammad Hafiz. The exhibition brings together works by Anniketyni Madian (b. 1986\, Malaysia)\, Meta Enjelita (b. 1994\, Indonesia)\, and Khairulddin Wahab (b. 1990\, Singapore) in dialogue with the late Singaporean batik modernist Jaafar Latiff (1937–2007\, Singapore). Through new responses to Latiff’s ideas and material experiments\, Metamorphosis explores legacy as restless and evolving\, highlighting contemporary practices across the Malay Archipelago\, where art\, craft\, and tradition are constantly reimagined. \nCentral to the exhibition is Jaafar Latiff’s lifelong commitment to pushing batik beyond convention. Working on his own terms\, he expanded the medium through abstraction\, material experimentation\, and an unwavering belief in artistic autonomy. His contributions\, recognised through major institutional exhibitions and his role as an influential art educator\, position him as a pivotal figure in Singapore’s post-independence art history. \nResponding to Jaafar Latiff’s sustained innovation with batik and abstraction\, the invited artists engage with his legacy through both material and conceptual transformation. Anniketyni Madian\, known for her abstract sculptural works\, draws on Iban folklore and Sarawakian cultural memory\, embedding personal and ancestral narratives within universal forms. Latiff’s persistent exploration of abstraction offers a point of departure for her practice\, where beneath seemingly universal forms lie traces of identity\, heritage\, and tradition. Meta Enjelita work explores the entangled matters of materiality\, ecological and social structures\, and her latest textile-based installation works incorporate stylised Jawi calligraphy inspired by Latiff’s Unspoken Dialogue series. Applying her signature rust-dyeing techniques\, her works weave together traditional batik and calligraphic techniques into contemporary installation\, giving form to a mutual conversation between art and craft. Khairulddin Wahab’s practice examines post-colonial histories\, cultural geography\, and environmental narratives. Similarly drawing on cultural narratives surrounding batik traditions\, his latest work adds another dimension to his practice\, especially after his residency at Lohjinawi\, Yogyakarta\, towards the end of 2025. Instead of working with his preferred acrylic paints\, Khairulddin has decided to adopt batik-inspired techniques for his latest work – a commentary on the spice and nutmeg trade during the colonial era. \nTogether\, these new works showcase some of Southeast Asia’s most dynamic young artists\, revealing their critical engagement with art history\, tradition\, and material practice. By placing Jaafar Latiff’s works alongside those of younger artists\, the exhibition offers additional perspectives through which to consider his practice. Metamorphosis positions Latiff’s ideas as ongoing and open to reinterpretation across generations. \n \nMetamorphosis runs from 17 January to 28 February 2026 at Cuturi Gallery\, Singapore.

Rituals of Perception is curated by Xiaoyu Weng\, TAF Artistic Director.

SUMMARY:Dialogue of Differences\, presented by ART SEASONS Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Dialogue of Differences brings together artists whose practices confront the frictions shaping today’s geopolitical\, cultural\, and social landscapes. At a time when rising nationalist sentiment and renewed “war economies”— both literal and ideological\, seek to reinforce old hierarchies\, the exhibition offers a counterpoint through artistic dissent\, complexity\, and exchange. Rather than collapsing perspectives into simple binaries\, it opens a space where contradiction and nuance become modes of resistance. \nParticipating artists: Awang Damit Ahmad\, David Chan\, Lester Lee\, Umibaizurah Mahir@Ismail and Yin Chua. \nAll works are for sale.

SUMMARY:S.E.A. Focus 2026: The Humane Agency
DESCRIPTION:In a world shaped by shifting borders\, changing climates\, and diaspora\, how do we choose to respond? S.E.A. Focus returns for its eighth edition under the curatorial theme The Humane Agency. \nCurated by John Z.W. Tung\, with artistic consultation by Emi Eu\, Executive Director of STPI\, the presentation highlights the quiet yet urgent force of artists who choose compassion over detachment. Instead of framing people as mere symbols of crisis\, the works foreground human connection—as a site of relation\, care and resilience. \nSpanning a variety of formats\, scale and media\, galleries and artists from across Southeast Asia and beyond reflect on three pressing global currents: the persistence of conflict and our longing for peace\, the intensifying ecological crisis\, and the movement of communities across and beyond nation-states. Together\, the works slow us down\, deepen our capacity to feel and remind us that empathy is not optional—it is a method\, an urgency and first step toward imagining a more connected\, less estranged future. \nCommissioned by the National Arts Council (NAC)\, S.E.A. Focus 2026 will be organised by and held at ART SG 2026 for the first time at the iconic Marina Bay Sands. Audiences are invited to experience how artists today act not just as observers of the world\, but as active participants in shaping it. \nMore information on S.E.A. Focus can be found at https://seafocus.sg/.

SUMMARY:STPI Symposium 2026: The Politics of Print
DESCRIPTION:How has print defined modern and contemporary art histories across geographies and generations\, shaping cultural movements in the process? Conceived as a gathering for curious discussion\, The Politics of Print invites speakers and audiences to participate in two days of lively conversations and debates.\n\nThinking about the legacies of print from the 19th century to the present\, discussions will look at the transnational legacies of print as a political form; the radical use of print to drive artistic movements across Asia; current trends in collecting prints that are revealing historic shifts in the global art market; and how memes and NFTs\, as works of art in an age of digital reproduction\, fit into the history of print.\n\nPunctuating these exchanges are artist roundtables with masters in their field\, Michael Craig-Martin\, Pinaree Sanpitak\, Salima Hashmi and Rirkrit Tiravanija\, plus the Singapore edition of Crit Club\, a contextual performance project conceived by Cem A.\, the artist behind the art world’s favourite meme account\, @freeze_magazine.\n\nOrganised by STPI\, curated by Stephanie Bailey.

SUMMARY:Momentary Pulses: Art in the Central Business District
DESCRIPTION:Date: 30 January 2026 – 31 December 2027\nVenue: Various sites across Singapore’s CBD (from Raffles Place to Tanjong Pagar)\nAdmission: Free \nPresented by The Everyday Museum (a public art initiative by Singapore Art Museum)\, Momentary Pulses is a public art trail that invites you to slow down and encounter art in the daily flow of life. Spanning overlooked and interstitial public spaces like linkways\, open plazas and MRT passages\, seven newly commissioned installations by Singapore based artists respond to the sights\, sounds and commercial pulse of the Central Business District (CBD) — turning routine journeys into moments of reflection and imagination. \nFeaturing works by Song-Ming Ang\, Finbarr Fallon\, Catherine Hu\, Zul Mahmod\, collaborative duo Teow Yue Han and Federico Ruberto\, Yang Jie and Immanuel Koh\, the trail reveals the textures and histories embedded within Singapore’s urban core. The works will be launched in two phases\, with the first phase featuring five installations by Song-Ming Ang\, Finbarr Fallon\, Catherine Hu\, Zul Mahmod\, and the collaborative duo Teow Yue Han and Federico Ruberto. The remaining two works by Yang Jie and Immanuel Koh will be introduced in the later part of 2026. Each installation is sited within walking distance in the CBD\, including stops near OUE Link (Raffles Place)\, One Raffles Quay (North Tower)\, Asia Square (Tower 1)\, Shenton House\, and Tanjong Pagar MRT (Exit G). Look out for kinetic and sound-based installations\, AI-driven works\, sculptural interventions\, and site-specific gestures that reframe how we perceive the city’s everyday infrastructures. Together\, these works offer distinct lenses on movement\, memory\, technology and transformation — encouraging new ways of seeing a district in constant motion. \nAs part of the public art trail’s opening\, The Everyday Museum launches Story Scape (30 January – 8 February 2026)\, a festival organised in collaboration with StoryFest. The festival extends the trail through exciting storytelling performances\, artist talks and an evening audiovisual experience at RASA Space. Programme details will be announced on SAM’s channels.  \n

SUMMARY:TAF Conversation Series: Stephanie Comilang and Carolina Fusilier (With performance 'Attuning to Sonic Residue' by Carolina Fusilier and Fumitake Tamura)
DESCRIPTION:Conceived as the closing event of TAF’s inaugural exhibition Rituals of Perception\, this iteration of the TAF Conversation Series features a newly commissioned performance by Carolina Fusilier in collaboration with musician Fumitake Tamura\, followed by a conversation between Fusilier and artist Stephanie Comilang\, moderated by Xiaoyu Weng\, TAF’s Artistic Director. The program marks the culmination of TAF’s year-long research on materiality\, focusing on how contemporary artists engage the entanglement of material\, technological\, and embodied systems.Developed as an extension of Fusilier’s installation Inmortalistas (2025) and conceived specifically for the New Bahru School Hall\, the performance Attuning to Sonic Residue centers on a handcrafted device designed to capture radio waves and electromagnetic frequencies\, integrated into a wearable suit. Emitted in real time through a speaker embedded in the costume\, the sound transforms the performer’s body—and the surrounding artworks—into living antennae capable of receiving and amplifying invisible signals. The work frames the body as a technological interface\, rendering perceptible the constant exchanges between bodies\, architecture\, and technological systems\, and positioning active listening as a ritual practice. Approaching radio and technology from a narrative perspective\, Comilang’s video work Piña\, Why Is the Sky Blue? (2021)\, created with Simon Speiser\, unfolds through the voice of Piña\, a sentient AI shaped by ancestral knowledge. The work interweaves the stories of Amazonian women radio broadcasters\, Afro-Ecuadorian and Indigenous healers\, and Filipina spiritual leaders\, whose memories and ritual knowledge are “uploaded” into artificial consciousness.\n\n\n  \nFree admission. \nRegister for the talk here. \nVenue: New Bahru School Hall

SUMMARY:To the Moon and Back
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to share To the Moon and Back\, an intimate live music experience taking place from 20–22 March 2026 at Chaos Gallery. Set within a space surrounded by original local artwork\, this concert invites audiences into a reflection on love\, the kind that’s often felt deeply but rarely spoken aloud. \nInspired by the subtle ways Singaporeans express affection\, To the Moon and Back explores love that is communicated through gestures and shared moments rather than direct words. The title reflects a sentiment many of us might have grown up with: while I love you is rarely heard\, to the moon and back is greatly felt. \nThe programme brings together beloved classical works by Edward Elgar\, Erik Satie\, and Robert Schumann\, alongside music from the films Up and La La Land. Each piece in the repertoire was chosen for the different shades of love it captures\, from the romantic to the familial\, the nostalgic\, and everything in between. \nThe concert features a unique chamber ensemble of mezzo-soprano Priscilla Fong\, clarinetist Stephanie Tan\, and harpist Nigel Foo. \nThe performance is presented alongside an exhibition by local artist Stephanie Tan\, whose works explore the many forms love can take between family\, friends\, and partners. Her art reflects the same ideas that inspired the concert\, the quiet nature of love and its ability to transform our lives in subtle yet profound ways. \nTogether\, the music and artwork create a reflective environment where audiences can pause and experience how love reveals itself not just in grand declarations\, but also in little moments. \nFind out more @eastsidestoryprod on Instagram.

Polite smiles crack\, civilities crumble\, and a night that begins with pastries and good intentions descends into chaos\, candour\, and comic catastrophe. \nNine Years Theatre brings you Yasmina Reza’s acclaimed\, razor-sharp dark comedy that reveals how thin the veneer of adulthood truly is. Under award-winning director Nelson Chia’s signature precision\, and with strong performances from an experienced ensemble — led by NYT co-founder Mia Chee\, multi-disciplinary actor-writer-host Oon Shu An\, Mediacorp multi-hyphenate artist Cavin Soh\, and seasoned stage and film actor Tay Kong Hui — their distinct performance energies collide to create sharp\, compelling tension. This work animates every shift\, crack\, and eruption\, drawing audiences into a sharply observed battle of pride\, parenting\, and personal truth. \nCome witness the elegant meltdown. \nIt’s messy. It’s funny. It’s painfully human. \n  \n \nPerformed in Mandarin with English surtitles \nApproximately 1 hour 30 minutes\, no intermission \nAdvisory (Some Mature Content) \n \n[STANDARD TICKETS] \nTue-Thu: $68 (CAT 1) | $55 (CAT 2) \nFri-Sun: $78 (CAT 1) | $65 (CAT 2) \n*Excluding SISTIC booking fee \n[ Early Bird Sale ] \n– 20% off CAT 1 tickets \n– Key promo code: NYT26EB upon selection of Ticket Type \n– Promo Period: 11 Dec 2025 to 3 Jan 2026 \nSG Culture Pass credits may be used for this show. \n[Available from 4 Jan 2026 onwards] \n[9-Fan] Existing Members \n– 15% off CAT 1 tickets \n– Promo code required \n[9-Fan] New Members \n– Limited to one 35% discounted CAT 1 ticket per transaction. \n– Promo code required \n– Applicable for Tue-Thu shows only \n– Click here to join now! \nNYT Youth Special \n– Applicable for 16-25 years old \n– 50% off CAT 2 tickets \n– Applicable for Tue-Thu shows only \n– Verification: Show valid IC for confirmation upon collection of physical ticket \n– Patrons unable to present proof of eligibility at the door will be required to upgrade their discounted tickets to full-price tickets \nPackage of 4 \n– Tue-Thu: $233 \n– Fri-Sun: $268 \n– No promo code required \n– Applicable to CAT 1 only \n– Applicable for bundles of 4 tickets. \nOther Promotions: \n\nConcessions for Students | NSF | PWD | Seniors 55 years old and above\n\n– 10% off CAT 1 & CAT 2 tickets \n– Patrons unable to present proof of eligibility at the door will be required to upgrade their concession ticket to a full-price ticket \n\nPAssion Card | HomeTeamNS | SAFRA\n\n– 10% off CAT 1 tickets · Promo code required \n\nWild Rice Angels\n\n– 12% off CAT 1 tickets · Promo code required \n\nGroup / Corporate Booking (min. 20 tickets and above)\n\n– Please email admin@nineyearstheatre.com for more information \n* All promotions are subject to availability
