SUMMARY:Plan 75 x ArtsWok Collaborative Fundraiser Screening
DESCRIPTION:This December\, the award-winning Japanese film Plan 75 is back on the big screen for a limited run since its release in 2022. Hailed for its sensitivity and haunting premise\, the film provides a lens to examine the place of seniors in a rapidly ageing society. Plan 75 will be accompanied by the touching short film Float Free (2024)\, where a trio of senior women find joy and a new lease of life from learning to swim at Yishun Swimming Complex. Both films offer an incisive and moving portrait of ageing\, community\, and the value of human connection. This unique pairing is brought together by non-profit arts organisation ArtsWok Collaborative in partnership with indie cinema The Projector.  \n  \nPlan 75 \nDirected by Chie Hayakawa \nIn Japanese with English subtitles \nRated NC16 \n  \nSet in a parallel dystopian Japan\, Plan 75 explores the introduction of a radical nationwide programme for voluntary euthanasia to deal with a super-aged society and the larger psychological repercussions that come with it. The film is a contemplative response to loneliness\, human dignity\, and what it really means to live. \n  \nFloat Free  \nCo-created by Chia Yim Fong\, Koh Tong Cheng\, and Michelle Sim with Salty Xi Jie Ng \nIn Mandarin with English and Mandarin subtitles \nRated G \n  \nFloat Free follows three seniors who overcome their fear of water to learn swimming at an older age. In the process\, they discover a shared community\, the freedom water provides in old age\, and reflections on life and death. The short film was collaboratively scripted by senior collaborators and the lead artist of a recent project under ArtsWok Collaborative’s flagship programme Both Sides\, Now.  \n  \nMembers of the public will have a chance to catch Plan 75 and Float Free in the cinema on 7 and 15 December only at The Projector at Cineleisure. Tickets will be available from 15 November 2024. The Projector will be donating a portion of ticket sales from both screenings to ArtsWok Collaborative in support of the work they do in engaging and developing communities. Find out more about ArtsWok’s 2024 fundraising campaign here.

SUMMARY:Lecture & Screening: Unearthing the "Blue Frontier": The International Seabed Authority's New Mining Code and the Costs of Deep-Sea Mining
DESCRIPTION:Over the past decade\, deep-sea minerals like polymetallic nodules containing copper and cobalt have gained attention as a potential resource for green energy technologies such as batteries\, computers\, and electric cars. Found mainly on the international seabed (as well as within territorial waters)\, these nodules are regulated by the International Seabed Authority (ISA)\, which will finalize a mining code in 2025 that determines future deep-sea exploration and exploitation. Following Singapore’s Deep-Sea Mining Act of 2015\, Ocean Mineral Singapore\, a subsidiary of Keppel Offshore and Marine conducted two deep-sea expeditions to the Pacific Ocean. While some argue this extraction is crucial for the green transition\, Pacific nations warn of its harmful impact on marine biodiversity and climate change. This lecture will explore the environmental and societal implications of deep-sea mining\, starting with a screening of the film Blue Peril\, 2022 (INTERPRT / Professor Nabil Ahmed\, Deep Sea Mining Campaign & Ozeanien-Dialog)\, a science-based visual investigation using architectural and spatial analysis to model the potentially irreversible effects of deep-sea mining in the Pacific Ocean. Paired with testimonies from Pacific Island communities\, this film addresses the impacts on their economies and ways of life. Following this\, Tara Maria Davenport (Assistant Professor\, Faculty of Law\, National University of Singapore and Deputy Director\, Asia-Pacific Centre for Environmental Law) and Jonathan Galka (PhD Candidate\, History of Science Department\, Harvard University) will discuss the historic mining code and its future impact on resource extraction\, drawing from legal\, historical\, and community perspectives. \n🔗 Register here \n⏰ Tuesday\, 10 December 2024\, 6:30 – 8:00 pm\n📍 The Hall\, NTU CCA Singapore\nBlock 6 Lock Road\n#01-09 Gillman Barracks\nS108934 \n🖼️ Model of the seabed plume in the Nauru NORI D licence area using Open Drift.

SUMMARY:METAL MACHINE MISCHIEF (or how to make noise music with bicycles) by bani haykal
DESCRIPTION:“Riding bikes ain’t s#!+ without climate justice\, without land back\, without liberation of everybody.” Christina Torres\, Cyclista Zine \nThe bicycle is more than just a means of transportation. In our increasingly car-centric and carbon-heavy lifestyle\, cycling is a climate action that slows down the rate at which our planet is burning. Inspiring stories from Gaza have shown us how bicycles can be radically repurposed into washing machines\, sewing machines\, and even power generators. \nIn the first part of the workshop\, participants will be offered a set of unused bicycle components and they will be guided to devise and conceptualise new musical or sonic instruments with them. In the second part\, these unorthodox instruments will be played in a group jam session! \nParticipants are encouraged to bring personal items such as mallets\, drumsticks\, clarinet mouthpieces\, and/or any musical bobs and bits they can incorporate into the instruments. \nThis workshop is part of the Empirical Workshop Series of Communities of Practice. Techno Diversions. \nNo prior knowledge or experience is required. \nLimited slots only! Register here.\nThis workshop is free for all participants. A refundable deposit of SGD 10 is requested to book a slot. The deposit will be returned upon attendance of the event. There will be no refund in case of no-show. \nIf you have questions\, email ntuccacomms@ntu.edu.sg

SUMMARY:Tayog-Tayog: The Ilonggo Imagination
DESCRIPTION:“Tayog-Tayog: The Ilonggo Imagination” presents a confluence of personal experiences\, historical narratives\, and indigenous cultural practices\, all intertwined with the fantastical elements of folklore and mythology that dwell within our collective psyche.\n\n\n\nThe Hiligaynon word “tayog” means “to fly off far.” Colloquially\, the expression “tayog-tayog” refers to an “out-of-this-world” idea. This is the starting point for the exhibition\, a launchpad for the lofty heights that the stories from Iloilo have reached—the Panay Sugidanun\, local folklore\, creatures like aswang\, tayho\, and kataw\, and even the narratives of a family history passed down through generations. These stories play a crucial role in retelling our realities and contribute to our collective memory.\n\n\n\nParticipating artists bring forth figments of their imaginations\, breathing life into the enigmatic and the uncanny. “Tayog-Tayog” is an homage to the surrealist tradition\, reimagined through the lens of contemporary and regional sensibilities. The featured works aim to use art to challenge the boundaries between reality and fantasy\, the past and the present\, the tangible and the ephemeral.

SUMMARY:Robert Zhao Renhui: 5 Albizias
DESCRIPTION:Step into the shade of the Albizia tree (Albizia moluccana)\, a resilient migrant tree species that has quietly spread and flourished in rewilding green spaces across Singapore’s landscape\, forming isolated islands amid Singapore’s urban concrete jungle. 5 Albizias\, a travelling showcase by artist Robert Zhao Renhui\, explores the history of the Albizia tree in Singapore\, tracing its origins to the Maluku Islands in Indonesia\, where the fast-growing species often populates areas marked by human intervention and natural disturbances.  \nThrough striking visuals of five Albizias—four from across Singapore in Tampines\, Punggol\, Jurong\, and Woodlands\, corresponding to the showcase venues—and one from the Maluku Islands\, 5 Albizias invites visitors to examine the impact human actions have on these spaces and the dynamic interplay between native and non-native\, natural and artificial. By spotlighting the resilience of these often-overlooked trees\, the exhibition brings to the fore their essential role in rewilding disturbed land\, creating pockets of green where life can thrive anew. \nPresented by Singapore Art Museum\, 5 Albizias takes Zhao’s explorations of the Albizia tree into the heartlands. Beginning at Punggol Regional Library\, the showcase will travel to the following locations from 18 December 2024 to 29 June 2025:  \n\nPunggol Regional Library: 18 December 2024 – 2 February 2025\nWoodlands Regional Library: 5 February 2025 – 23 March 2025\nJurong Regional Library: 26 March 2025 – 11 May 2025\nTampines Regional Library: 14 May 2025 – 29 June 2025

SUMMARY:Natural Radio Workshop led by artist Ong Kian Peng
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will introduce participants to natural radio. Natural radio is the emission of Very Low Frequency (VLF) and Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) radio waves due to electromagnetic energy from natural phenomena. These emissions originate terrestrially from lightning and from the Sun’s interactions with the Earth’s magnetosphere\, they are among the inaudible voices of the environment. If the low frequencies of these electromagnetic outbursts are transformed into acoustic waves\, many of these signals may fall within the range of human hearing. Experiencing electromagnetic waves as acoustic waves will allow listeners to connect with the beauty and complexity of natural radio waves in a unique aural experience. \nBy the end of the workshop\, participants will be able to assemble an analogue handheld radio device that tunes in to natural radio frequencies. \nParticipants are encouraged to bring their own headphones with a 3.5mm audio jack\, along with an optional audio recorder to capture and share their auditory discoveries. \nThis workshop is part of the Empirical Workshop Series of Communities of Practice. Techno Diversions. \nNo prior knowledge of electronics is required. \nLimited slots only! Register here.\nThis workshop is free for all participants. A refundable deposit of SGD 10 is requested to book a slot. The deposit will be returned upon attendance of the event. There will be no refund in case of no-show. \nIf you have questions\, email ntuccacomms@ntu.edu.sg

SUMMARY:comma 2025: PAST x PRESENT = FUTURE
DESCRIPTION:comma\, indicating an unfinished sentence\, reflects the fluidity of the arts and never-ending pursuit for excellence among Singapore’s young creatives. \n \nFrom 31 December 2024 to 26 January 2025\, comma is a Creative Arts festival that celebrates emerging artists while bringing the spotlight to Singapore’s budding creative scene at the Somerset Belt.  \nThe equation “PAST x PRESENT = FUTURE” invites contemplation on how the echoes of the past resonate in the present\, shaping the trajectory of what is yet to come.    \nThis theme invites artists to delve into this interconnectedness by unearthing forgotten narratives\, evolving perspectives and envisioning the influence of the past and present on our future. Drawing inspiration from tradition\, heritage and ritualism\, artists are encouraged to experiment with new techniques and unconventional themes and materials\, creating works that not only mirror our current reality but also provide glimpses into the trajectory of where we are headed.    \nAudiences will experience works that pay homage to our roots while offering fresh and contemporary interpretations\, weaving together the threads of past\, present\, and future.

SUMMARY:Of Dreams and Contemplation: I am All but a Story – Selections from the Collection of Richard Koh
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with Singapore Art Week 2025\, The Private Museum is proud to present Of Dreams and Contemplation: I am All but a Story – Selections from the Collection of Richard Koh. This exhibition marks the second showcase of Richard Koh’s evolving journey as a collector and gallerist\, showcasing over 50 works from his personal collection. \n  \nBuilding upon the narrative of the first instalment in 2019—held at the museum’s former home at 51 Waterloo Street—the second instalment expands the scope of Koh’s deeply personal collection. The first showcase offered an intimate glimpse into Koh’s collection—emphasising monochromatic\, abstract\, and landscape works that reflected quiet introspection. Now\, Of Dreams and Contemplation: I am All but a Story continues to unfold a collection rich in personal meaning—presenting works that trace Koh’s decades-long interactions with art and the artists he admires. \n  \nCollected with a focus on memory and emotion\, Koh’s private collection spans Southeast Asia and beyond\, blending local\, regional\, and global perspectives. This exhibition deepens the dialogue between art and life\, revealing Koh’s ongoing exploration of what he calls a “visual diary”—works that evoke deeply personal moments and emotions. This new selection of works reflects an evolving journey that continues to resonate with new meanings in The Private Museum’s expansive space at the Osborne House. \n  \nAs both a collector and the founder of Richard Koh Fine Art\, Richard Koh has played a pivotal role in shaping and contributing towards the art ecology in Southeast Asia. This collaboration with Richard Koh underscores the collective effort and dedication towards fostering meaningful exchanges between artists\, collectors\, the arts communities\, and audiences from all walks of life. \nKickstarting the Museum’s 2025 programme\, Of Dreams and Contemplation: I am All but a Story invites all to explore the richness of art and discover how collections can tell deeply personal stories. As Richard Koh aptly states\, “Art\, in any collection\, should have its own story\,” inspiring audiences to embark on their own journey of collecting and storytelling through art.

DESCRIPTION:Accessibility Features\nOpen captions in English for all shows \na unique approach\, rather bold and different \n—Natya Vichara on Purushi by Ruby Jayaseelan \nI know [Effendy’s work] will express a kind of pain and anger acceptable in the performance space\, a pain and anger that is often delegitimised or minimised or considered “inappropriate” elsewhere—and I cherish his work for that reason. \n—Corrie Tan\, Jom Media on ANAK by Very Shy Gurl by fendy \nI myself am an absolute abyss. \n—Antonin Artaud \nIn the beginning\, God created despair\, for men to find hope within. Someone heard someone else say this somewhere before\, sometime back. But no one knows who\, when and where. It must have been God herself who had said this through some men. Only God could be that smart to tease men into such futility. And here\, men find themselves being baited into their own despair. \nConceptualised and directed by Noor Effendy Ibrahim and Ruby Jayaseelan\, Dancing with the Ghost of My Child is an experimental physical theatre performance written by Elvira Foo Jing  Yun\, Gregory Kong Ka-Ee\, Lex (Lee Zhi Qi)\, and Liu Qintong (Amelia) exploring vulnerability\, trauma and the desire to heal. It is devised by students from the BA (Honours) in Performance Making programme at Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts. \nCo-presented with Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (a founding member of the University of the Arts Singapore). \nThere will be a dialogue with the artists after each performance\, with speech to text interpretation available upon request for the dialogue on 10 January 2025.

SUMMARY:Ernest Goh | ‘Bleached Bones: Last Words of the Dead Spoken by a Dying Sea’
DESCRIPTION:‘Bleached Bones’ is a visual catalogue of photographic prints by artist and photographer Ernest Goh. In this exhibition curated by Shireen Marican\, bleached corals capture timeless\, poignant last words of the departed. \nBleaching is a phenomenon when corals turn completely white after algae in their tissues are expelled when their waters are too warm — nature’s lasting reminder that climatic changes continue to influence ecological systems. \nErnest’s explorations across the shores of Nikoi Island in Indonesia led to a discovery of the unique formations of these bleached corals. In these\, he finds a visual parallel to the alphabet system which he draws upon to contemplate lessons of life and living from death poems and last words. \nThis exhibition is presented by Blueprint Art Advisory. For information on exhibition programmes\, please visit www.blueprintartadvisory.com/ernestgoh-bleachedbones \nExhibition is open 11 am – 7 pm daily. \nExhibition is closed 28 Jan – 2 Feb 2025 for Chinese New Year.

SUMMARY:Robert Zhao: The Divine in the Trash Stratum
DESCRIPTION:The symbols of the divine show up in our world initially at the trash stratum.\n– Philip K Dick \nShanghART Singapore is pleased to present The Divine in the Trash Stratum\, a solo exhibition by Robert Zhao Renhui featuring his latest photographic works. The exhibition highlights the profound transformations that emerge from layers of waste and decay\, as the artist invites us to reimagine the relationship between humanity and nature. \nA series of photographs of various creatures on a fallen Albizia tree trunk welcome visitors into the space. These strange scenes depict how a site of destruction has transformed into one of regeneration and life. Mysterious images of precious gems are in fact created with remnants of human activity such as glass shards and discarded fragments\, manifesting them as symbols of how forest processes and human histories intertwine. \nOpening 11 January 2025 ahead of Singapore Art Week\, the exhibition coincides with the Singapore Art Museum’s presentation of Seeing Forest\, first shown at the Singapore Pavilion at the Venice Biennale\, extending Zhao’s ongoing explorations of ecological resilience.

SUMMARY:M1 Singapore Fringe Festival 2025: WePushTheSky by Qabila
DESCRIPTION:Accessibility Features\nOpen captions in English for all shows. \n… part history lesson\, part culinary exploration\, and part feminist fable\n \n— Karthik Ranganathan\, Citizen Matters \nThe play is a triumph of storytelling and is exceptionally brave.. \n—Venkat Srinivasan\, Sabrang India \nWePushTheSky is an interactive solo performance that weaves together food\, song\, story\, myth\, and history. Where personal stories meet community histories\, survival stories of the Karbala entwine with songs of the Ramayana\, and anecdotes from the past confront desires about the future. A play that reflects on an urgent social reality of our present times—friendships that have been lost\, gained\, or have endured amidst increasing shrill political rhetoric across the world. \nWritten and performed by Nisha Abdulla and directed by Ujwala Rao\, WePushTheSky centres friendship and feminist solidarities as an antidote to the politics of hate. The play invites the audience to listen deeply to another’s reality and elevates listening to the act of an assertive ally. WePushTheSky has toured widely to warm receptions in India\, performed at the Feminist Theatre Festival in Jenin\, Occupied Palestine\, and has been invited to perform at the 15th Association for Women’s Rights in Development (AWID) International Forum in Bangkok\, Thailand. \nThere will be a dialogue with the artists after each performance\, with speech to text interpretation available upon request for the dialogue on 16 January 2025. Please email your request to info@singaporefringe.com by 6 December 2024.

SUMMARY:The Eye and The Tiger
DESCRIPTION:Walk up to a fabled black and white bungalow nestled in a lush rolling landscape. If you think the black-and-white is about exclusivity\, you’re absolutely right. But the story is far bloodier and infinitely blacker. \nThe form and function of the black and white bungalow take after the Anglo-Indian plantation villa\, once part of a global botanical network built on lies\, violence and indentured labour. \nSpread open the map and you will see two more landmarks nearby that have been forgotten in the story of our black-and-whites: Botanic Gardens and Tiger Hill. Discover how the colonial gaze shapes our relationship to land and nature\, and how tigers have haunted us at every step. \nCome join us on this guided art walk.

SUMMARY:M1 Singapore Fringe Festival 2025: The Troupe by Birds Migrant Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Language\nIn English\, with some Bahasa Indonesia\, Bengali and Burmese \nAccessibility Features\nOpen captions in English for all shows. \n  \nWith a good cast giving their all onstage\, an unflinching\, objectively written story that speaks truth to the limitations of being a migrant in Singapore\, and imaginative script that explores the pitfalls of love and family\, Foreign Bodies was a rare\, big-hearted\, honest glimpse into migrant life\, by migrant workers with a story to tell.\n \n— Bakchormeeboy.com on Foreign Bodies \n\nPlease welcome The Troupe! They travel around towns and villages with their show. They perform stories about farmers\, refugees\, students\, politicians and aid workers—people in search of a better life. As they stage their play\, they discover that what they perform may be closer to home than they realise. \nBirds Migrant Theatre returns to the Fringe with another important play that focuses on current world issues—from war to the refugee crisis—and how these tragedies pose questions to our common humanity. The Troupe looks at how people who are affected by displacement strive for a more positive future—not just for themselves\, but for their families and community. Will suffering and desperation bring out the best in people—or the worst? What is the price of compassion? \n \nForeign Bodies is a well-told story that dramatises the legal precarity migrant workers may face in Singapore. It does so without resorting to mere sympathy or an easy us-versus-them set-up\, choosing instead to let audiences into its protagonists’ dilemmas.\n \n—The Straits Times Life on Foreign Bodies \nThere will be a dialogue with the artists after the 5pm performance on 12 January 2025\, with speech to text interpretation available upon request.

SUMMARY:Phenomenology of Light and Rhythms of the Earth
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition by Zen Teh and SueKi Yee \n14 Jan to 2 Mar 2025\nObjectifs Lower Galleries \nOpening: Tue 14 Jan 2025\, 7pm – 9pm\nThe opening reception will be accompanied by a performance by Sueki Yee at 7pm.\nFree admission \nRelated events\nParticipative Movement Workshop (Please register here)\nDate & Time: Sat 18 Jan 2025\, 3pm – 530pm\nWorkshop details\nSueKi’s performance: 3pm – 4pm\nSharing and movement activities: 4pm – 530pm\nLocation: Objectifs Lower Galleries\nFree admission \nPhenomenology of Light and Rhythms of the Earth is a project extended from Zen Teh’s residency project and exhibition at Künstlerhaus Bethanien in Berlin\, Germany. As part of her residency project\, she conducted walking workshops in Phnom Penh\, Bangkok and Berlin. This project idea draws on her ongoing research on our relationship with urbanity in rapidly developing cities. \nZen (visual art) and SueKi (dance) as collaborators\, are now interested in moving forward with research into Singapore’s urban context\, delving deeper into how they can explore the discourses on light and urbanity through multidisciplinary means: soundscapes\, multimedia data translation\, movement\, and tactile forms. This provides multiple entry points into the research as well as the interpretation\, creation\, and presentation of the data. Through artistic means\, they are interested in opening up a space where people can take time to process and discuss their embodied perspectives on light and darkness\, and how these ever co-existing elements are inextricably linked to life rhythms\, memories\, pollution\, urban development\, safety and surveillance\, environmental changes\, accessibility of energy\, and volatile global political states. \n— \nAbout Zen Teh\nZen Teh (b.1988\, Singapore) is an artist and educator interested in man’s relationship with the natural world. Her art practice spans photography\, sculpture and installation art. Teh has initiated collaborative interdisciplinary projects with artists\, art professionals and scientists to explore the impact of human activity on natural environments. Teh’s works have been showcased in Singapore and regionally including Thailand\, Cambodia\, Indonesia\, Korea\, Japan\, Taiwan and China. She was conferred the Young Artist Award by The National Arts Council\, Singapore in 2021. She was artist-in-residence at the International Studio Programme at Künstlerhaus Bethanien in Berlin\, Germany in 2024. \nAbout SueKi Yee\nSueKi Yee is a Malaysian dancer-choreographer (currently based in Berlin) who’s drawn to improvisation\, site-specific work\, and multidisciplinary experimentation and collaboration. With a Bachelor in Dance (ASWARA)\, she’s trained in contemporary dance\, ballet\, and various traditional folk and classical dances. Movement has become her entry point into understanding and exploring other art forms\, providing diverse entry points into her work and expanding the horizons of research\, creation\, and presentation.

Comprising an exhibition and a series of informal gatherings\, the project approaches curatorial work of care as a means of revealing and understanding the often-invisible labours of artistic production. Transforming Objectifs’ Chapel Gallery into a shared\, psychological artists’ studio\, the exhibition synthesises four propositions on care by artists Hu Rui\, Genevieve Leong\, Huijun Lu\, and Arabelle Zhuang. The informal gatherings aim to broaden and deepen the discourse\, probing the values encoded in our words and actions. Featuring programmes such as a dialogue with artist Ezzam Rahman and open studios\, these gatherings create a space to imagine how we might journey together sustainably\, thriving within—and beyond—Singapore’s pursuit of excellence. \n— \nAbout the Curator\nLenette Lua is a practice-led researcher and curator whose interests delve into reconciling the contested intersections of political\, economic\, and socio-cultural spheres through her curatorial work. While at the Royal College of Art in London\, she initiated the long-term curatorial project ‘Fungi Initiative\,’ exploring institutional collaborations via participatory artist-led workshops. She was the recipient of the Objectifs Curator Open Call 2024 Award. \nAbout the Artists \nArabelle Zhuang is an interdisciplinary artist working across photography\, moving images and textiles. In her practice\, Zhuang examines the interpersonal relationship\, beauty in the peripheral and the cyclical nature of being. She is interested in developing narratives that search for the multiplicities of everyday life and the layers in between. \nEzzam Rahman is a multi-disciplinary artist known for his interest in the body and the use of common\, easily accessible\, yet unconventional media in his art practice. Working across sculpture\, installation\, digital media\, and performance\, he creates works that are often autobiographical\, time-based\, and ephemeral\, aiming to pique viewers’ thoughts on the themes of body politics\, identity\, impermanence\, traces\, and abjection. He was awarded a joint winner of the Grand Prize for the President’s Young Talents 2015 and the People’s Choice Award by the Singapore Art Museum. Ezzam won the Most Promising Award for photography at the PULSE Awards 2021. He served as artistic director for The Substation in 2021 and was involved in various prestigious programmes\, including the NIE Visiting Artist Programme and NAC Our SG Arts Plan launch event. \nGenevieve Leong‘s art practice attempts to visualise the intangible. Beginning with the immaterial\, her work often combines text\, image\, found and made objects and the manipulation of space to create what she describes as “an almost physical image”. The installations that she creates often embody an impermanence with possibilities for change\, whether it be due to audience participation or natural environmental factors. Her work seeks to shed new light onto her emotions\, sensations\, and realisations. \nHu Rui works with videos\, installations\, and computer simulation. His practice engages with issues around temporality from a multitude of variables\, including causality\, prediction\, choice\, and language. He is the recipient of the Best Experimental Animation Award at the 60th Ann Arbor Film Festival and a Jury Special Mention at the 25FPS Festival Croatia. He is Assistant Professor in Computation and Design at Duke Kunshan University. \nHuijun Lu works at the intersections of art\, music\, engineering and computing. Lu’s practice culminates in kinetic installations\, sculptures\, moving images and soundscapes. Consistent in the works are mechanisms and circuits that examine the function of objects\, observations about the unnoticed in our environments\, and technology’s role in mediating relationships with our surroundings. \nAbout the designer \nVanessa Ban is a designer and educator with over a decade of experience working with cultural institutions and commercial clients. She is the founder of External Assessment Summer School\, an interdisciplinary educational initiative that bridges art\, critical theory\, and design. Vanessa has served on jury panels including D&AD and The Crowbar Awards. As an adjunct faculty\, she incorporates her professional expertise and critical design approach honed through experiences at Pentagram\, Typography Summer School New York\, and the London College of Communication.

SUMMARY:M1 Singapore Fringe Festival 2025: Eclipse by The Necessary Stage
DESCRIPTION:Accessibility Features\nOpen captions in English for all shows \nAbsorbingly told by [2008 staging’s actor] Umar Ahmed\, Eclipse suggests that ancestral memory is never as meaningful as the allegiances of everyday life. \n— The Guardian UK \n  \n  \n  \n(Playwright Haresh Sharma) has demonstrated a deftness and maturity in scriptwriting\, a deeper inquiry into life and humanity\, as well as an evident progress in terms of his creations. \n— 联合早报 Lianhe Zaobao [translated from Chinese] \nA young Singaporean man is making a journey to his father’s birthplace in Hyderabad\, Pakistan. With him are his father’s ashes. As he makes the arduous trip\, he retraces the original journey made by millions of people—including his parents and grandparents—in 1947\, during the partition of India and Pakistan. \nWritten by Cultural Medallion recipient Haresh Sharma\, Eclipse is a play that looks at three generations of men struggling with their dreams and their journeys\, offering an intimate look at personal stories affected by historical events. \nFirst presented as a short play to critical acclaim by Scotland’s 7:84 Theatre at Traverse Theatre\, Eclipse was developed into a full-length production for the M1 Singapore Fringe Festival 2008. \nAlmost 80 years after the Partition\, this staging with a fresh new direction by Associate Artist A Yagnya stars award-winning Singapore actor Shrey Bhargava. It also features Indian classical vocalist Sveta Kilpady. \nThere will be a dialogue with the artists after the performances on 16 and 17 January 2025\, with speech to text interpretation available upon request for the dialogue on 17 January 2025. Please email your request to info@singaporefringe.com by 6 December 2024.
