SUMMARY:[Collected on Paper] Occasion #1: Time Capsules
DESCRIPTION:A book showcase initiated by Hong Shu-ying \n14 Sep to 21 Dec 2024\nObjectifs Library\nFree admission \nRelated events\nBook Sharing (Please register here)\nDate & Time: Wed 2 Oct\, 7.30pm – 9pm\nLocation: Objectifs Workshop Space\nFree admission \nBook Club #1: Time Capsules (Please register here)\nDate & Time: Thu 14 Nov\, 7.30pm – 9pm\nLocation: Objectifs Annexe\nFree admission \nPREMISE \n“[collected on paper] has a simple premise. It intends to combine: \n\nthe magic of hearing an artist or bookmaker share about their process\, and\nthe luxury of time and comfort when reading in a library.\n\nAn art book is a curious object—it’s an artwork you can touch and carry around. It can have pictures and texts\, or many pictures and no text\, or even texts and no pictures. \nArt books afford a private space and mode of encounter that can be revisited freely and repeatedly. While I love the conversations surrounding books and their makers at an art fair\, it’s an awfully extroverted endeavour. [collected on paper] offers a chance to explore different art books and the creators’ thoughts in an intimate setting\, with notes on their processes and materials.” \nMODE \nA selection of books will be presented alongside a book club under a particular idea on each occasion. The showcase is held within an existing art book library\, allowing the books to be encountered in the context of other art books. \nThe first occasion will reflect on the idea of time capsules. On this occasion\, the books selected for discussions related to time capsules contain images that share certain qualities with the capsules themselves: \n\nmost of the images in these books were not originally intended to become part of a book.\nthese images\, like most in books\, gain additional readings over time\, but they also become irreplicable\, as the shift in time directly impacts their context.\n\n[collected on paper] is co-programmed by Hong Shu-ying and Objectifs Centre for Photography and Film. \n\nOccasion #1: Time Capsules  \nA time capsule is a container where things are well-kept and protected from the elements. I’ve always found it fascinating that everyday objects can become archived and emblematic of their era once they are placed in a time capsule. These items aren’t necessarily exclusive or rare but serve as a snapshot of what the capsule’s creator valued at that moment. The very existence of a time capsule implies that care and resources have been dedicated to preserving these objects. \nOn this occasion\, the books selected for discussions related to time capsules contain images that share certain qualities with the capsules themselves: \n\nmost of the images in these books were not originally intended to become part of a book.\nthese images\, like most in books\, gain additional readings over time\, but they also become irreplicable\, as the shift in time directly impacts their context.\n\nBooks Featured 📚📚📚 \n\nAparna Nori – 24 Slides\nGeorge Wong – Wallet\nLai Yu Tong – Things I Bought\, Things I Threw Away\, Things I Ate\, Things I Saw\, Things I Made\, and Other Things (For Future Reference)\nLou / Atelier HOKO – Spider & Man\n\n\nAbout Hong Shu-ying \nHong Shu-ying 方舒颖 is an artist who collects and works with found images and materials. She recontextualises familiar sights and sounds to highlight patterns\, repetitions\, and contradictions related to inheritance and ways of learning. \nHer recent projects delve into informal archives\, which act like personal and communal time capsules that encapsulate the banalities and peculiarities of life. These include handwritten elements found in scores and annotations\, alongside amateur videos and images. This fascination is informed by her experiences growing up in amateur Chinese orchestras and the internet. \nShu holds a BFA (Hons) in Media Art (Photography) from Nanyang Technological University\, School of Art\, Design\, and Media. She was awarded the Kwek Leng Joo Prize of Excellence in Photography and featured in the 6th Women in Film and Photography Showcase by Objectifs (Singapore). Recently\, she had her first solo presentation at Esplanade (Singapore) as part of the Singapore Art Week 2024. She has participated in exhibitions\, showcases\, and festivals internationally\, including in Austria\, Cambodia\, China\, Germany\, Indonesia\, Italy\, Malaysia\, the Netherlands\, South Korea\, Taiwan\, and Thailand.
