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:Pressure Points by Lucas Tan
DESCRIPTION:Haridas Contemporary is delighted to present Lucas Tan’s (b. 2000\, Singapore) debut solo exhibition with the gallery. Working mainly in figuration\, Tan’s practice focuses on capturing small\, fleeting moments and sentimentalities from everyday life. Influenced by his engagement with image culture\, Tan constructs his compositions through orchestration and mediation\, creating works that feel both deeply personal and strangely relatable. Throughout his practice\, these moments form a visual language that reflects lived experience and broader emotional patterns. \nPressure Points features 14 new paintings that highlight this focus by exploring the various pressures shaping the artist’s life. Scenes of intimacy\, distance\, and quiet reflection unfold across the exhibition\, revealing vulnerability in Tan’s work as he navigates feelings of belonging and ambition. Rooted in autobiography\, the works examine the tension between revealing and controlling\, and between the desire to be seen and the urge to self-present. In this body of work\, Tan’s focus on the everyday becomes a form of introspection\, unveiling an emotional landscape shaped by negotiation\, aspiration\, and the complexities of modern life.

SUMMARY:You Free Hor? 你闲哦? - A Solo Exhibition by Agnes Christina
DESCRIPTION:“You free hor?” is both an invitation and a jeer – asking if one has spare time or sarcastically saying they have too much time on hand. This solo exhibition by Indonesian artist Agnes Christina is a tongue-in-cheek show exploring the shifting attitudes toward time – how we are filling it\, stretching it\, valuing it. In modern productivity-driven culture such as Singapore\, time\, including the spare ones\, must be justified. As time becomes currency\, the exhibition asks: do we own our time\, or does it own us? What does it truly mean to be free?

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: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: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:Let’s Play! The Art and Design of Asian Games
DESCRIPTION:Games are among humanity’s oldest shared experiences – a source of joy\, challenge\, and connection for thousands of years. In Asia\, they have developed in remarkably diverse ways\, from the lively\, fast-paced rhythms of mahjong and congkak to the contemplative strategy of go and chess. They have entertained and educated\, reflected power and status\, and acted as metaphors for life. \nThis exhibition explores the rich history of Asian games and the role they have played in shaping culture\, identity\, and community. Some travelled widely\, taking on new forms and meanings across borders. Others became tools for mental training or expressions of artistic ideals. Even today\, they remain at the frontier of innovation – as seen in the rise of artificial intelligence. \nMany of the games on display are also works of extraordinary beauty and craftsmanship. As you explore the exhibition\, we invite you to discover how the act of play continues to inspire\, evolve\, and connect people across time and place. \nLet’s Play! incorporates playable interactives\, outdoor installations\, collaborations with schools and local game associations\, and a diverse line-up of programmes and talks.
