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: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:Rituals of Perception
DESCRIPTION:Tanoto Art Foundation’s (TAF) first major group exhibition Rituals of Perception will open on 21 January 2026 during Singapore Art Week. On view through 1 March 2026\, the exhibition gathers works born from intimate dialogues between body and matter\, unfolding through slow\, contemplative\, and iterative processes.

Staged at Singapore’s New Bahru School Hall\, the exhibition features works from the Tanoto Family Collection\, loans and new commissions by over twenty leading contemporary artists. Rituals of Perception is curated by Xiaoyu Weng\, TAF Artistic Director. During the opening reception\, artist Sriwhana Spong presented a new performance as part of her ongoing research\, presented in Singapore for the first time. \nTo learn more about Rituals of Perception here. \nLocation \nNew Bahru School Hall\, 46 Kim Yam Road\, School Block\, #02-02\, Singapore 239351 \nOpening Hours \nOpens Daily\, 11am-7pm \nSaturdays till 9pm

SUMMARY:Lai Yu Tong: The Dogs
DESCRIPTION:ShanghART Singapore is pleased to present Lai Yu Tong’s first solo exhibition with the gallery\, The Dogs\, opening on 30 August 2025. Featuring a new series of works that centres around his encounters with a pack of stray dogs\, the artist invites us to reconsider our relationship with entities that exist on the fringes of our environments\, while reflecting upon his own experiences and interactions with the dogs across several months. \nDrawing upon observations of the present\, Lai’s practice examines the overlooked and neglected. Everyday objects and subjects such as cars\, crows\, hands\, and chairs feature as motifs across his works that are cast within the stories and scenarios that he creates around them. By looking at something for extended periods of time\, he brings out alternative perspectives on the familiar. Recently\, his gaze fixates upon the stray dogs that he encounters around a forested area close to where he lives. Their existence as wild\, untamed and shy creatures that roam under the shadows of Singapore intrigues him. \nIn a highly developed and controlled society\, the presence of these dogs introduces a degree of unpredictability\, even instilling a sense of danger. Initial encounters with them ended with Lai retreating out of fear. However\, following multiple visits where he would observe\, photograph and sometimes feed the dogs\, the fear that he felt eventually shifts into a kind of love\, as he forms a connection with these misunderstood creatures. \nStorytelling makes up a big part of Lai’s approach\, manifesting in forms such as drawing\, sculpture\, and sound. In these latest works\, Lai seeks to retell his encounters with these enigmatic creatures through intimate pieces of drawings and collages on various modest everyday materials — cardboard\, wood\, and paper. He simultaneously draws and obscures the dogs\, playing with techniques of erasure and transparency that render his subjects as ghostly figures and impressions. Such loose methods of representation alludes to the elusiveness and placelessness of the subjects he draws\, whilst also allowing them to take on other identities and connotations. \nThrough a selection of two-dimensional works\, a sculpture\, a sound piece and a performance\, the gallery space is transformed into a site of encounter between the audience and the dogs. Bridging the distance between us and them through Lai’s own experiences\, the exhibition encourages visitors to empathise and identify with the beings that live on the edges of our environments; out of sight and away from what we are familiar with.

SUMMARY:Boedi Widjaja: Immortal Words :: 字基
DESCRIPTION:Immortal Words :: 字基 splices poetry with genetic code\, meditating on the diasporic condition. Boedi Widjaja asks: if history is displaced\, how might it take up new space through the body? His 4-line toponymic poem spatialises as DNA nano-sculptures—lines\, circles\, cubes—released through a capsule ball machine\, with the microfluidic molecular writing process unspooled on video. A living\, participatory work realized with geneticist Eric Yap (Institute of Digital Molecular Analytics and Science).

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.
