SUMMARY:Talking Objects
DESCRIPTION:Singapore Art Museum (SAM) presents Talking Objects\, its latest exhibition at the dedicated collection gallery. Drawn from the museum’s collection\, the exhibition explores how everyday objects – commonplace items\, familiar scenes and everyday representations — become vessels of memory\, meaning\, and emotion when seen through the lens of artists and their practices. Beyond materiality\, Talking Objects considers how even the most everyday forms can become instruments of expression. In the hands of artists\, the ordinary takes on new significance\, inviting us to look again at the world around us. \nFeaturing works by widely recognised artists from across Asia\, including Alwin Reamillo\, Suzann Victor\, and Christine Ay Tjoe\, Talking Objects showcases a diversity of artistic voices and practices\, while offering insights into SAM’s ongoing research into the material and conceptual languages of contemporary art in the region. These artworks resonate with shared human experiences while remaining grounded in the particularities of place and personal history. The exhibition invites visitors to slow down\, reflect\, and rediscover the quiet power of objects in shaping how we see and understand the world.  \nTalking Objects is housed alongside The Living Room in SAM’s collection gallery. Together\, they create a reflective space where personal and collective experiences converge\, offering insights into individual narratives and broader social and cultural conditions.

SUMMARY:The Living Room
DESCRIPTION:Singapore Art Museum (SAM) presents its latest exhibition The Living Room\, as part of the final chapter of Collection Project: Communicating\, Convening\, Commoning—a long-term collaboration between SAM\, Seoul Museum of Art (SeMA)\, and Queensland Art Gallery | Gallery of Modern Art (QAGOMA). Housed at SAM’s refreshed collection gallery\, the exhibition brings together performance-based works from the collections of all three institutions to explore how performances – fleeting by nature – can be remembered\, reactivated\, and carried forward through different forms of engagement. At its heart is a central question: What happens to a performance when it ends? Where does its liveness go\, and how might we make sense of what remains? \nFeaturing works by renowned local and international artists such as Ezzam Rahman\, Chuyia Chia\, Kim Garam\, Brian Fuata and others\, The Living Room presents a breadth of practices spanning live performances\, video\, installation\, performance traces\, re-enactments\, and artist-led activations. Taking inspiration from the living room as a space for gathering and presence\, the exhibition invites visitors into an evolving environment that is brought to life through activation\, conversation\, and exchange. By bringing together works grounded in lived experience\, The Living Room opens new ways of understanding how performance lives on through objects\, memory\, interaction\, and shared encounters. \nThe Living Room is showcased alongside Talking Objects at SAM’s collection gallery. Together\, they create a reflective space where personal and collective experiences converge\, offering insights into individual narratives and broader social and cultural conditions.

SUMMARY:Engage with history through art at Temple\, National Gallery Singapore’s first rooftop installation integrating kinetic motion and sound
DESCRIPTION:Embark on a meditative experience at Temple\, a new participatory artwork by Vietnamese-American artist Tuan Andrew Nguyen. Commissioned by National Gallery Singapore for its Ng Teng Fong Roof Garden Commission series and presented as part of Singapore Biennale 2025: pure intention\, Temple invites visitors to reflect on history and contemplate the impact of war through a multisensorial experience that blends kinetic motion and sound – underscoring the Gallery’s mission to connect the art of Singapore and Southeast Asia to the world and foster critical dialogue on global issues through art. \nFeaturing bells and mobiles crafted from recovered and defused unexploded ordnance (UXO) from the Vietnam War\, visitors are encouraged to strike the defused shells\, gongs\, and chimes\, creating a meditative soundscape. Through this transformation of weapons of war into instruments of peace\, Nguyen inspires ideas of karmic balance\, reincarnation\, and the memories embedded within materials\, offering a powerful lens for healing and reconciliation. \nTemple is the eighth edition of the Ng Teng Fong Roof Garden Commission.

SUMMARY:Peacock Power: Beauty and Symbolism Across Cultures
DESCRIPTION:With its dazzling feathers and spectacular tail\, the peacock has long symbolised beauty\, power\, and divinity across Asia. For centuries\, its striking form has captivated artists and devotees alike\, inspiring works that range from sacred images to everyday adornment. \nThe peacock motif travelled between cultures. Peranakan art\, shaped by the convergence of multiple influences\, is the starting point for this journey. Treasures from the National Collection and important lenders explore the bird’s presence in a broad range of artistic disciplines. Each object invites visitors to consider how a motif moved between regions and contexts\, revealing the networks that connect peoples and how artistic traditions evolve through exchange. \nThe exhibition presents these connections through colourful displays\, interactive stations\, and lively programmes. A new work by artist Ernest Goh explores the peacock in the context of its symbolism\, cultural heritage\, and ecology.

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: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: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: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:STPI Annual Special Exhibition  2026 | Zarina: Directions to  My House
DESCRIPTION:STPI presents Zarina: Directions to My House\, the artist’s largest solo exhibition in Southeast Asia. One of the most significant printmakers of the late 20th and early 21st centuries\, Zarina (1937–2020\, Aligarh\, India; London\, United Kingdom)\, was a key figure in minimalist and diasporic practice. Curated by New York-based independent curator and Zarina’s former studio manager Sarah Burney \, Directions to My House offers a deeply informed perspective on the artist’s life and work\, bringing together over 50 works from 12 lenders across multiple cities\, reflecting her life that was profoundly shaped by numerous continents – having lived across Bangkok\, New Delhi\, Paris\, Bonn\, Tokyo\, Santa Cruz\, and finally New York.

SUMMARY:Crosscurrents: Masterpieces of Mughal\, Safavid\, and Ottoman Art from the Musée du Louvre
DESCRIPTION:From the 16th to 18th century\, three great empires – the Mughals\, Safavids\, and Ottomans – shaped a vast and interconnected world across Asia. This period marked the height of their influence\, even as European expansion reshaped global trade and politics.  Within and between these empires\, artists produced works of remarkable beauty that projected authority and gave visible form to power. \nThis exhibition presents one hundred masterpieces from the Louvre\, drawn from royal collections and later acquisitions. Southeast Asian objects from ACM’s collection are interwoven throughout\, bringing these traditions into dialogue and revealing the crosscurrents that connected distant regions.

SUMMARY:pbdq 排排
DESCRIPTION:A small shift in orientation\, and one thing becomes another. Like the letters p\, b\, d\, q — which become one another through simple rotation — each work in the exhibition carries traces of something that came before\, then landing somewhere new. In pbdq\, exhibiting artists Catherine Hu\, Cally Tan and Genevieve Leong revisit works\, materials and obsessions from past experiences\, revealing an intimate and sustained relationship with the physical\, visual and sensorial in their everyday life.  \nCatherine Hu’s process often involves recreating existing objects to explore the gradient between looking like and being something. One of her exhibited works\, Found Tile Stool (2023)\, is a stool made with stray mosaic tiles\, collected over three years from various locations: on the street\, in drains\, in nature parks\, at public playgrounds\, washed up on beaches\, in carparks\, or half-buried in the soil of a stranger’s garden. Perfect squares of colour shed from buildings that might no longer exist\, or from walls and floors that might have since been remodelled\, are repurposed and given a new lease of life.  \nCally Tan\, a textile-forward object-maker whose practice explores the representation of objecthood and potency in non-human matter\, presents Milky Way Finds (2025)\, a series of small items encased in double-woven pockets. Contributed by friends\, these items that have been tucked away\, accumulated\, and often forgotten\, represent traces and memories of their owners’ lives: a grocery receipt tucked into a coat pocket bearing witness to a loved one’s cooking\, an accumulation of sweet wrappers marking the rhythm of daily habits. Lingering at the edges of daily life\, they become akin to drifting debris in the Milky Way – also the name of the woven silk material given by its Nagano manufacturers in Japan.   \nan attempt at solidifying make-believe landscapes (2026) is a series of object assemblages by Genevieve Leong\, that draws from the nostalgic vocabulary of children’s imaginative play and ‘masak masak’\, or make-believe cooking. It follows an earlier print series An attempt at exhausting a place from my window (2020–21) of 26 variations of a landscape\, that explores various possibilities of looking at a single vantage point. Continuing this inquiry\, an attempt at solidifying make-believe landscapes extrapolates the two-dimensional landscapes into three-dimensional object constellations arranged on the ground.

SUMMARY:ROME INTERNATIONAL ART FAIR – 18TH EDITION 2026
DESCRIPTION:ITSLIQUID Group is proud to announce the 18th edition of ROME INTERNATIONAL ART\nFAIR 2026\, taking place from July 08 to July 19\, 2026\, at ITSLIQUID Art Space – Rome\,\nlocated in the historic district of Trastevere. Hosted in a remarkable 15th-century palace\,\nthe exhibition brings together contemporary artistic languages from around the world\,\ncreating a dynamic platform where artistic research encounters the timeless cultural\nheritage of the Eternal City.\nExploring the relationship between body and space\, ROME INTERNATIONAL ART FAIR\n2026 reflects on the ongoing hybridization between identities and cultural\, physical\, social\,\nand urban contexts in contemporary society. Through its two curatorial sections\, MIXING\nIDENTITIES and FUTURE LANDSCAPES\, the exhibition invites visitors to investigate\nperception\, memory\, transformation\, and the evolving interaction between individuals and\nthe environments they inhabit.\nMIXING IDENTITIES analyses the hidden dimensions of identity through an immersive\njourney into the labyrinths of consciousness. At the same time\, FUTURE LANDSCAPES\nexplores the concept of boundaries – between body\, mind\, and spirit; between individuals\nand the city; and between space and ground – transforming everyday surfaces into fluid\nterritories of open and evolving ideas. Within this framework\, the selected artists offer\nunique perspectives on contemporary existence through deeply personal visual narratives.\nPresented as a compelling solo exhibition\, Giovanni Tozzetti’s “LONG WALK FROM\nAUSTRALIA TO ROMA – E ‘ndo so nato\, vissuto\, cresciuto e pasciuto” masterfully opens a\nvibrant dialogue between individual narrative and collective experience. The project\nunfolds as a deeply personal yet universally resonant journey\, bridging vast geographical\ndistances with intimate roots to explore how private memories intersect with shared\ncultural identities. Through this fluid interaction\, the exhibition invites the audience to\nreflect on the universal themes of migration\, home\, and the continuous evolution of self.\nRooted in a practice that explores the relationship between painting and photography\,\nTozzetti transforms observed reality into a refined painterly language\, preserving the\nimmediacy of the original image while emphasizing its symbolic and communicative power.\nGestures\, symbols\, and shared spaces become communication vehicles\, revealing how\npersonal narratives are continuously negotiated within broader cultural and urban contexts.

SUMMARY:Days That Slip Away Untouched: A Solo Exhibition by Uji “Hahan” Handoko Eko Saputro
DESCRIPTION:Gajah Gallery Singapore presents Days That Slip Away Untouched\, a solo exhibition by Indonesian artist Uji “Hahan” Handoko Eko Saputro. Following its debut in Jakarta\, the exhibition continues Hahan’s investigation into the shifting relationship between physical reality and its digital mediation. \nWorking across painting\, sculpture\, and sound\, Hahan examines how perception and meaning are conditioned within digitally mediated environments. His work probes the terms by which images and experiences are encountered\, tracing how distinctions between the real\, the constructed\, and the circulated are produced\, and how authenticity is negotiated in their wake. \nIn contrast to the immediacy of digital systems\, Hahan’s practice emphasises slowness and material engagement. Developed in close dialogue with the Ace House collective and his studio artisans\, the works emerge through what he describes as an “aesthetic kinship”\, a process rooted in shared labour and collective exchange. Across the exhibition\, Hahan appropriates imagery from works by Raden Saleh\, Tomás Sánchez\, and Walter Spies\, using these references to reflect on how knowledge\, power\, and ways of seeing have shaped historical narratives. In doing so\, the works draw attention to the instability of images in an era governed by algorithmic visibility\, where depth and context risk being flattened. Within these compositions\, moments of disruption appear through hybrid figures and altered landscapes\, introducing a sense of dissonance that unsettles familiar visual frameworks. These gestures operate as subtle “glitches”\, interrupting dominant modes of representation and\nopening up alternative ways of seeing and understanding. \nThe exhibition title\, Days That Slip Away Untouched\, speaks to an awareness of time that often passes without full attention. Across his practice\, Hahan foregrounds attentiveness —to history\, process\, and everyday experience— as a means of resisting this condition. Here\, authenticity is approached as something continually negotiated within the conditions of contemporary life.

SUMMARY:Common Room
DESCRIPTION:When two young adults get the rare opportunity to share a living space of their own in Singapore\, it’s all too easy to fall into mundane patterns of domestic responsibility. But within these rote routines lies the magic of profound late night conversations about one’s place in the world\, spontaneous deep dives into exes and lost friends\, and musings about what the future holds. \nCommon Room by ants chua is a celebration of the emotional\, physical\, and relational work of queer living. Directors Claire Wong and ants chua reveal a rare insight into the domestic spaces that allow us to be the most vulnerable\, and the tender efforts we make to grapple with our past mistakes and our present selves. This intimate two-hander sees actors Genevieve Tan and Siti Sara Hamid delicately unfold the layers of identity\, of queerness\, and of vocation. \nAn exploration of loving\, living and dreaming amidst the relentless rhythm and rupture of daily life\, Common Room is both familiar and new; at once poetic and irreverent. Amidst the ongoing rupture and repair of friendships\, despite the impossibilities and failures of language\, how can we continue reaching toward each other?

SUMMARY:BARCELONA CONTEMPORARY - 9TH EDITION 2026
DESCRIPTION:ITSLIQUID Group is delighted to announce the 9th edition of BARCELONA CONTEMPORARY 2026\, taking place from July 16 to July 25\, 2026\, at ITSLIQUID Art Space – Barcelona. Dedicated to contemporary artistic languages\, the exhibition brings together painting\, photography\, video art\, installation\, sculpture\, and performance art\, creating a dynamic platform where artistic research meets the vibrant cultural energy of Barcelona. \nExploring the connection between body and space\, BARCELONA CONTEMPORARY 2026 reflects on how identities evolve within today’s cultural\, social\, and urban contexts. Through its two curatorial sections\, MIXING IDENTITIES and FUTURE LANDSCAPES\, the exhibition invites us to investigate transformation\, perception\, and coexistence in the contemporary world. \nMIXING IDENTITIES analyses the hidden dimensions of identity through an immersive journey into the labyrinths of consciousness. At the same time\, FUTURE LANDSCAPES explores abstract and conceptual spaces where boundaries dissolve\, opening new dialogues between body\, mind\, soul\, and environment. Within this framework\, the selected artists offer unique perspectives on memory\, transformation\, and the relationship between individuals and the spaces they inhabit.

SUMMARY:VISIONS – ANIMA MUNDI 2026
DESCRIPTION:ITSLIQUID Group\, in collaboration with ACIT Venice – Italian-German Cultural Association\, is pleased to announce the opening of VISIONS\, the third appointment of ANIMA MUNDI 2026. The exhibition will open on July 17\, 2026\, at Palazzo Albrizzi-Capello in Venice and will remain on view until July 31\, 2026. ANIMA MUNDI is the vital energy that flows through all things\, the subtle force connecting every form of existence\, from natural to artificial\, visible to invisible. Understood since Plato’s Timaeus as the soul of a living universe\, it returns today as\nan intuitive awareness of an invisible but active network that sustains transformation\, coexistence\, and renewal across matter\, time\, and life. It is the underlying rhythm that links ecosystems\, human and non-human entities\, and balances the continuous evolution of the world. Within this framework\, artists\, designers\, and architects are invited to explore how this universal energy manifests today\, investigating the subtle\ncorrespondences between soul and body\, humanity and nature\, and organic and synthetic worlds. Among the selected artists\, Andrew R. Gibbs’s layered compositions in “Cities of Change” explore the emotional impact of transforming urban landscapes\, where architecture and collective memory intertwine to reveal the fragile relationship between place and identity. Similarly\, Hiromasa Maeda’s “City Layered” interprets the glass-and-concrete skyline as a palimpsest of reflections\, shifting perspectives\, and fleeting traces of human presence\, suggesting that cities acquire meaning only through those who inhabit them. In parallel\, Nuvy Kim (N12Y.3) and Ilinca-Ruxandra Pipelea translate inner\nexperience into material form: drawing on the precision of her background in jewellery making\, Kim’s ceramics and paintings transform fractured perfection into ambiguous\, ungendered anatomies and psychologically charged spaces. Pipelea\, by contrast\, constructs immersive environments through vibrant chromatic fields and richly layered textures\, using colour and gestural accumulation to evoke the unseen rhythms of nature\, memory\, and emotional perception. A quiet\, introspective sensibility runs through the figurative work of Dominika Łuszcz\nand Marga Garcia: Łuszcz’s elongated\, folk-inflected portraits contain restrained psychological tension and cultural traces\, and Garcia’s “Surrectio” reads the figure as an emergent\, feminine rebirth – silent\, inward\, and resilient. This intimacy of feeling appears elsewhere in Inna Stelmachowicz’s meditative images\, where silence\, material\, and light render moments of honesty and inner tension\, and in Diana Rîmbu’s intuitive paintings\, which invite reflection and healing through emotional resonance grounded in an  architectural sense of space. Movement\, rhythm\, and the transmutation of performance into image animate the photographic work of Danny Johananoff\, whose slow-shutter studies dissolve choreography into painterly currents that make tradition feel timeless; Satyajett Salokhey’s large-scale ink gestures similarly capture bodily impulse and subconscious residue\, balancing control and spontaneity. Asnaby Samuel’s canvases introduce a mythic\, mnemonic counterpart: drawing on Sahara oral traditions\, his “Djinns” series treats drums and surfaces as carriers of memory and projection\, where attention and presence activate ambiguous spiritual forces. Finally\, Filomena Parra’s “A Dança do Vidro” offers a lyrical conclusion: glass becomes suspended light and gentle choreography\, a study in fragility and fluidity that echoes the formal restraint and emotional subtlety threaded through the show. VISIONS offers a cohesive journey through contemporary visual practices\, further enriched by a great selection of video artworks.

SUMMARY:Intermission by Esmond Loh
DESCRIPTION:Haridas Contemporary is thrilled to present Esmond Loh’s (b. 1995) latest solo exhibition with the gallery. Titled Intermission\, Loh explores the pauses that emerge within the ongoing performance of everyday life. Intermission features 17 new paintings. \nSet against a backdrop of rural and urban landscapes that appear ambiguous yet intimately familiar\, this series of new works conjures figurative scenes of individuals caught between roles. Within such precious pockets of time\, in a society shaped by perpetual momentum and productivity\, Loh draws our attention to the suspense that envelops these private vignettes of rest\, waiting\, or escape.

SUMMARY:CHARGED by Teater Ekamatra
DESCRIPTION:Written by Chong Tze Chien and winner of Best Script at The Straits Times Life! Theatre Awards in 2011\, CHARGED is set during Chinese New Year and opens on a tense night in camp\, where the only soldiers left on guard duty are Malay and Indian. The uneasy quiet is broken by the arrival of Corporal Russell Lim. Old resentments surface\, insults escalate\, and taboos are shattered. By dawn\, two soldiers\, one Chinese and one Malay\, lie dead. \nAs Investigating Officer Victor de Souza pieces together the chain of events\, he confronts a maze of half truths\, silences\, and conflicting loyalties. \nSet within the suffocating hierarchy of army life\, the play confronts the fraught question of race with unsparing candour and a sharp refusal of easy political comfort. \nLed by director Mohd Fared Jainal\, with lighting design by Adrian Tan and sound design by Safuan Johari\, CHARGED features a dynamic ensemble of performers: Brendon Fernandez\, Irsyad Dawood\, Teoh Jun Vinh\, Krish Natarajan\, Ali Mazrin\, Izzul Irfan\, Siti Hajar Abdul Gani\, and Serene Chen.
