SUMMARY:Chng Seok Tin: Through All Vicissitudes
DESCRIPTION:ART:DIS (Singapore) Ltd and artcommune proudly present Through All Vicissitudes: Prints & Sculptures by Chng Seok Tin\, which is on view at artcommune gallery from 12 to 27 November 2022. Featuring over 30 prints and sculptures that span the period of 1976-2010s\, the exhibition traces the motivations that shaped Chng’s four decade-long creative journey and celebrates a life lived large in spite of obstacles and misfortunes. \nChng Seok Tin (b. 1946\, Singapore – d. 2019\, Singapore)\, Cultural Medallion recipient\, was a renowned printmaker\, sculptor and multi-media artist whose devoted practice to printmaking became synonymous with the Singapore printmaking development between the 1980s and 1990s. Chng’s printmaking oeuvre encompasses a variety of techniques and experiments (lithography\, etching\, engraving\, silkscreen\, woodcut\, monotype and ink transfer)\, and reflects her mediations on Zhuang Zi (庄子) and various philosophical texts. Themes of existentialism resonate strongly in her prints and sculptures\, which often dramatise man’s pursuits of dream\, love and freedom\, and the struggles towards enlightenment. At times\, wry social commentary or humorous banter permeate her imagery. \nAn accident in 1988 left Chng visually impaired. This forced her to rely on mainly dry point or mixed media method\, and the help of an assistant to continue her printmaking into the 2000s. Having earlier adopted mixed media installation and sculpture into her practice during her studies abroad in the 1980s\, she decided to focus more on these mediums beginning in the mid-90s as they afforded her a more tactile and flexible exploration of forms and materials. \nA firm believer in inspiring and building the capabilities of the younger generation\, this exhibition will also raise funds towards the CST Education Fund to support young artists with disabilities to participate in a new Industry Mentorship Programme organized by ART:DIS.

SUMMARY:SITFE'S ASIAN PREMIERE EVENT
DESCRIPTION:Did you know that saris worn by Indian women were used as ‘shields’ to protect Chinese babies against the bayonets of Japanese soldiers during the Japanese Occupation in Singapore? Would you have imagined a harmless game of Sepak Raga (present day Sepak Takraw) amongst young men could change the fate of Malacca’s Sultanate in the 15th century? Well\, it did with a cost.  \n SITFE invites you to witness a possibility where local history\, culture and literature are entwined through two historical fiction films that are making their Asian Premiere this coming November. \n\nSingapore Indian Theatre & Film Explorers (also known as S.I.T.F.E.)\, a local non-profit arts organization that was started in 2016 by Saleem Hadi and D.Piriyadarisini\, will be doing an Asian Premiere of two of its Tamil historical fiction films at Carnival Cinemas on 12th Nov 2022 (Sat) followed by another additional screening on 13th November 2022 (Sun). Saleem Hadi is the director and producer of both films. \nThe two films shown are: \n\n NOOL KADHAIGAL (Thread Tales) [20 mins]  and\n NATCHUKOPPAI (Glass Of Poison) [1hr 20 mins]\n\nThere will be no intermission between these two films. \nS.I.T.F.E. understands\, respects and values local history\, heritage and culture. Thus S.I.T.F.E. believes that it is essential for all to appreciate the past and treasure our present. S.I.T.F.E. diligently recommends its supporters\, youths and members of the public\, to draw inspiration from local literature that will increase their appreciation of local works\, as the way our inspiration has led to the creation of these two films. As a Deepavali treat for the general audience and our supporters\, S.I.T.F.E. will be launching two Tamil films (with English subtitles) at Carnival Cinemas.
