SUMMARY:Storytelling Through Photography Course
DESCRIPTION:Photography has the power to capture moments in time\, document events\, and record our experiences. How can we move beyond strong single images and start to tell compelling visual stories? \nIn this workshop\, participants begin by exploring the work of established documentary photographers. They will learn to develop their vision by identifying themes of personal interest and finding stories around them. The course takes a hands-on approach to visual storytelling\, with participants shooting images weekly and receiving feedback from the instructor and in group critiques. In the process\, they learn the principles\, ethics of and approaches to documentary photography and refine their work. \nParticipants in this course should possess basic technical proficiency in photography and have an interest in visual storytelling and documentary photography. They will maximise their learning in the course if they commit to working on their photo story between sessions. This course will also be useful to those who want to use documentary photography and visual storytelling across a variety of disciplines from advocacy\, to marketing\, to journalism and more. \nParticipants are to use their own cameras and other softwares (if applicable) which they are comfortable with for this workshop. \nKindly note that this instalment of the workshop will run in a hybrid model\, consisting of a mixture of in-person and online sessions. Please refer to the schedule below for more details. \nGroup A: 21 Jan to 11 Mar 2025 \n1. Tue 21 Jan\, 7.30pm – 10pm\n2. Mon 27 Jan\, 7.30pm – 10pm (online)\n3. Tue 4 Feb\, 7.30pm – 10pm (online)\n4. Tue 18 Feb\, 7.30pm – 10pm (online)\n5. Tue 25 Feb\, 7.30pm – 10pm (online)\n6. Tue 11 Mar\, 7.30pm – 10pm \nTechnical Requirements\nBasic photography proficiency will be helpful. Participants may shoot with a smartphone but the use of a DSLR or mirrorless camera is encouraged if possible and accessible\, as it allows for a greater range of technical possibilities.

SUMMARY:Urban Screens: Dancing Alone (Don’t Leave Me)
DESCRIPTION:A video art showcase by Susie Wong \n17 to 26 Jan 2025\nVenues: Digital billboard at Fortune Centre and Digital billboard at Wilkie Edge \nDancing Alone (Don’t Leave Me) is a series of onscreen vignettes of solitary women dancing by themselves\, for themselves. The work is inspired by a scene from the film\, The King and I\, where the female protagonist says\, “No woman would dance alone when a man is looking at her.” In Wong’s work\, the dancer is both the centre of attention and wholly indifferent; her occupation of the screen gives momentary respite and joy. \nYet her ability to escape the gaze of others is constrained by her own longing to be seen. Exaggerated by a highly visible medium\, these strange tensions speak of Wong’s long term preoccupation with romance and agency in relation to cinematic tropes\, and the complex negotiations that ensue. \nThis work is curated for Urban Screens\, which is presented by Objectifs as part of Singapore Art Week\, supported by the National Arts Council and Plan B Media. \nAbout Susie Wong \nSusie Wong is an artist\, curator\, educator and art writer in Singapore. She studied painting at the former LASALLE College of the Arts (St. Patrick’s Fine Arts) in the mid-1980s\, and pursued her Master of Fine Arts at LASALLE in 2007. She was artist-resident at NTU-CCA Singapore in 2018. Wong’s work ranges across landscapes\, still life\, portraiture\, a recurring subject in her early oil paintings and drawings. Since 1990s\, Wong has curated\, co-curated\, co-organised and/or participated in several solo and group exhibitions: Personae XX (1996\, Kandang Kerbau)\, HOPE: w.a.p. [women artists’ project] (2000\, Chijmes)\, The Machine Contemplating the Body (2014\, Singapore General Hospital) among others. More recently\, her work contemplates mass media and the circulation and consumption of images\, the mistrust of representation\, appropriating images or visual references for much of her work\, extending to romantic tropes in media. Her installation work with video/light projections includes Take Care of Me in the curated series\, Opening Day\, at the Upper Serangoon Shopping Centre in January 2018; and Dancing Alone\, at Objectifs\, 2020. \nShe was artist-in-residence at NTU CCA (Nanyang Technological University -Centre for Contemporary Art) from June to November 2018. \nWong has also written for numerous publications and monographs on art since the late 1980s. She is Assoc. Editor for ISSUE\, an annual LASALLE journal publication since 2013.

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: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.

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.

Following the guidelines of “Erase\, Control\, Colonize\, and Disguise”\, the work bridges the artists’ embodied experiences\, social phenomena in the wellness\, anti-aging industries\, urban redevelopment\, and modernization projects in their respective ‘post-colonized’ cities of Seoul and Singapore. \nA Manual for Timeless Youth (50 mins) loops hourly. \nThis exhibition is rated PG13 (Consumer Advice: Some Mature Content). \n  \nAbout Choi Minkyung  \nMinkyung Choi is a South Korean visual artist\, currently based in Seoul.

SUMMARY:Exhibition: Don’t show me | 唔好俾我睇
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition by Donna Chiu\nCurated by Zhuang Wubin \n19 Jul to 18 Aug 2024\nObjectifs Lower Gallery 2\n\nOpening: Fri 19 Jul 2024\, 7pm – 9pm\nFree admission \nRelated events\nArtist Talk with Donna Chiu & Zhuang Wubin (Please register here)\nDate & Time: Sat 27 Jul\, 2pm – 3pm\nLocation: Objectifs Annexe\nFree admission \nPsychodrama Workshop:Untangling Family Web (Please register here)\nDate & Time: Sat 3 Aug\, 4pm – 7pm\nLocation: Objectifs Workshop Space\nGeneral Admission: $20/pax\nOpen to participants aged 18 years and above. \n“唔好俾我睇 [‘Don’t show me’ in Cantonese]!” That was the retort of Donna Chiu’s mother in one of her quarrels with dad. With the phrase as starting point\, Chiu begins a journey of introspection\, using the processes of photography and painting to move beyond her initial frustrations and misconceptions towards her mother. Chiu realised she has often downplayed her mother’s experiences; over the years\, her mother has had to survive within the patriarchal structure of family and society in Hong Kong before external circumstances forced her and her children to relocate and live in different cities. By using her artmaking to dialogue with her mother\, Chiu hopes to better understand her mother and see her in a different light. \nThis exhibition is supported by \nNational Arts Council Singapore\nObjectifs Centre for Photography and Film \n  \nAbout Donna Chiu \nDonna Chiu is a Singaporean visual artist. Her practice focuses mainly on photography and painting. Using art to make sense of the world\, Chiu’s work unfolds an introspective dialogue with herself and often takes the form of abstraction. In recent years\, her artistic process has evolved into a cathartic journey of self-reflection\, delving into the depths of emotional trauma experienced by herself and the people around her. As a result\, her work has become an exploration of intimacy and human vulnerability\, and the intricate interplay between individuals and the circumstances that confront them. \nChiu’s work has been exhibited in Asia and Europe. In 2023\, she mounted her first solo exhibition\, titled Sitting by the Window\, Looking at the Painting Dry\, at Lumenvisum\, Hong Kong. Her work has also been featured in group exhibitions\, including the Singapore International Photography Festival (2016)\, Obscura Festival of Photography (Malaysia\, 2018)\, A(R)TITUDE Festival (Italy\, 2022)\, and the International Exhibition of the Society of Modern Photography & Video (South Korea\, 2023). \nAbout Zhuang Wubin \nZhuang Wubin is a writer who makes photographs\, publications and exhibitions. Zhuang is the major grantee of the Robert H. N. Ho Family Foundation Greater China Research Grant 2018 and a recipient of the Prince Claus Fund research grant (2010). In Singapore\, Zhuang is the recipient of the National Library (NL) Digital Fellowship 2023 and the Lee Kong Chian Research Fellowship 2017 at the NL. He has been invited to research residency programmes at Institute Technology of Bandung (2013)\, Asia Art Archive (AAA)\, Hong Kong (2015)\, Kuandu Museum of Fine Arts\, Taiwan (2017) and the Ha Bik Chuen Archive Project at AAA (2018). He is the contributing curator of the Chiang Mai Photo Festival (2015\, 2017\, 2020). \nPublished by NUS Press\, Photography in Southeast Asia: A Survey (2016) is his fourth book. The Chinese translation is published in 2019 by VOP BOOKS\, Taipei. Zhuang is a founding member of Writing Foto (writingfoto.wordpress.com)\, a growing collection of writings on photography loosely directed at the imaginaries of South/east Asia.

SUMMARY:Objectifs Documentary Award
DESCRIPTION:From 18 May to 16 Jun 2024\, Objectifs Centre presents 3 works by recipients of the Objectifs Documentary Award 2023. \nAn Elephant’s Eye\nFeaturing works by Choulay Mech (Cambodia)\nRecipient of the Objectifs Documentary Award 2023\, Open Category\nMentor and Curator: Roger Nelson \nChapel Gallery\, Objectifs \nOpening | 18 May 2024\, 12pm – 7pm\nArtist Talk with Choulay Mech and Roger Nelson | 18 May 2024\, 2.30pm – 3.30pm (Register here) \nIn this exhibition\, Choulay Mech invites us to consider an elephant’s place in the world\, and to imagine the world as it is experienced by elephants. The artist proposes a multi-species view of the entangled intersections between nature and history\, religion and violence\, humans and other animals. Her intuitive and poetic approach layers photography\, video\, and found objects\, and draws on long-term research. \nChoulay pays particular attention to the impact on elephants of ongoing environmental destruction in Cambodia\, the country’s recent history of war and widespread violence\, and the spiritual beliefs combining Buddhism with animism which shape the attitudes of many Cambodians. \n—\nSunshine \nFeaturing works by Lê Nguyên Phương (Vietnam)\nRecipient of the Objectifs Documentary Award\, Emerging Category\nMentored by Ng Swan Ti \nLower Gallery 2\, Objectifs \nOpening | 18 May 2024\, 12pm – 9pm\nArtist Talk with Lê Nguyên Phương and Dan Tran | 18 May 2024\, 4pm – 5pm (Register here) \nSunshine\, an inner-western suburb of Melbourne\, is home to a Vietnamese-Australian community that started to grow in the 1970s\, when a large number of refugees from the American War in Vietnam were settled in Australia. Today\, the suburb contains multiple facsimiles of Vietnam in its community practices and environment – references to and longing for a home country that many first-generation immigrants continue to hold close to their hearts. In documenting the suburb\, Phương Nguyên Lê addresses notions of diaspora\, national identity and longing. \n— \nMangaramoti Tano Ni Ompung (To Bless the Mother’s Land)\nFeaturing works by Kaleb Sitompul (Indonesia)\nRecipient of the Objectifs Documentary Award 2023\, Emerging Category\nMentored by Ng Swan Ti \nLower Gallery 1\, Objectifs \nOpening | 18 May 2024\, 12pm – 7pm\nArtist Talk with Kaleb Sitompul and Ng Swan Ti | 18 May 2024\, 1pm – 2pm (Register here) \nThe Opung Raja Nasomalomarhohos Pasaribu (Natinggir Forest Indigenous Community) is a Batak tribe that has resided in the highlands of Toba in North Sumatra\, Indonesia\, for over 300 years. They are one of the area’s oldest indigenous residents. The tribe has a deep spiritual and emotional connection to the land from years of living in and managing the forest\, with the frankincense tree occupying a special place in their folklore and beliefs. Aside for using the land for farming and gathering\, they harvest the fragrant resin of frankincense trees\, a practice that has been in place for generations. \nThe tribe’s ancestral lands have slowly been encroached upon by eucalyptus plantations established by a major company that pulps eucalyptus trees for industrial purposes. These plantations have turned a vibrant ecosystem into a monoculture; the frankincense trees that used to grow plentifully are disappearing and the land has been left bereft\, threatening the tribe’s traditional livelihoods and practices. \nAbout the Objectifs Documentary Award\nThe Objectifs Documentary Award champions Objectifs’ mission to broaden perspectives through image making\, by supporting original voices in visual storytelling in Singapore and the wider region. The Award enables photographers to work on new or existing projects\, encouraging them to tell stories about their native communities.

SUMMARY:The Yearning for Harmony
DESCRIPTION:A solo exhibition by Ryhan M.Y. \n18 to 31 May 2024\nObjectifs Annexe \n\nOpening: Sat 18 May 2024\, 7pm – 9pm\nFree admission \nExhibition programmes: \nArtist Talk (RSVP here)\nFri 31 May 2024\, 7:30pm – 8:45pm\nObjectifs Workshop Space \nHow do you learn to call a place in which you have no direct connection to\, home? \nSince 2019 Ryhan has been residing in Japan working within the agriculture sector. From farming green tea to researching sea salt\, practising photography has provided her with a way of reconciling the paradoxical feelings of discomfort and joy while exploring her new home. This creative outlet became especially poignant during a time when borders in Japan were closed and there were numerous insecurities about the future. \nEach photograph chosen represents a specific moment of beauty and longing for Ryhan. When being in the present also alludes to a well grieved past\, this yearning for harmony between nostalgia and the allure of new memories is the fabric of her unapologetically human behaviour. \nShot primarily on film\, each photograph is accompanied by Ryhan’s honest thoughts on tackling the harsh realities that came with making her dreams a reality. Trying to bridge the disconnect between the person she was when she left Singapore\, and who she is now. \nRyhan has since also collaborated with two other artists\, DaybyDae and MZA\, in an attempt to make the rootlessness\, tangible. Through the medium of pottery and music\, both collaborators were given the freedom to interpret the photographs in their own voice. \n\nRyhan M.Y.\nFull-time farmer\, part-time photographer; the quiet of the countryside is where Ryhan finds her loudest bursts of creativity. Day in\, day out\, the continuous routine of the fields have trained her attention for detail and tenacity to seek out the beauty in small daily rituals. Shooting on both digital and film\, she hopes to capture these delicate intricacies for others to appreciate. \nDaybyDae \nA Singapore-based potter\, Daesiree creates functional tableware using wheel throwing and hand building techniques. Her work explores the inherent elegance of form and function\, where nature serves as a guiding muse. Her passion for pottery blossomed in 2019 and since then\, she has been honing her skills in creating functional ceramics that bridges the gap between everyday objects and artistic expressions. Motherhood adds another dimension to her work\, where she finds inspiration in the joy of everyday living. Whether crafting unique cups to elegant serving platters\, she strives to infuse each piece with a sense of beauty and functionality. \nMZA\nA mixed Japanese-Singaporean DJ/producer\, based in Singapore. MZA creates music inspired by jazz\, hip hop and dance culture. Often using a mixture of drum machines\, electronic synthesisers and traditional folk instruments from the East and Southeast Asian region.
