An Interview with Joanna Dong on risk taking and reinvention in her immersive sound and sculpture performance ‘BIG BIG small small’

For Joanna Dong, better known as a jazz vocalist and local musical star, the shift into experimental, interdisciplinary performance isn’t a reinvention so much as a return to something unfinished. Long before she became widely recognised through television and large-scale performances, she was already drawn to work that resisted neat categorisation, pieces that blurred sound, movement, and space into something less easily named. “Going into … Continue reading An Interview with Joanna Dong on risk taking and reinvention in her immersive sound and sculpture performance ‘BIG BIG small small’

Art: Zarina – Directions to My House at STPI

At STPI in Singapore’s Robertson Quay, Zarina’s world unfolds not as biography in the conventional sense, but as a sustained act of translation: of life into line, memory into geometry, and displacement into print. Zarina: Directions to My House (6 June – 1 August 2026), the institution’s Annual Special Exhibition, is the most comprehensive presentation of her work in Southeast Asia to date, bringing together … Continue reading Art: Zarina – Directions to My House at STPI

★★★★★ Circus Review: A Simple Space by Gravity & Other Myths (Flipside 2026)

Ingeniously simple concept that reminds us of the joy of circus, stripping is back to its essentials and delivering on a rollicking good time. When most people think of circus, they imagine massive spectacle: towering big tops, elaborate costumes, dazzling lighting rigs, and performers transformed into larger-than-life characters. Contemporary circus after all, often leans towards ever-greater scale, bigger stunts, more ambitious concepts, and increasingly elaborate … Continue reading ★★★★★ Circus Review: A Simple Space by Gravity & Other Myths (Flipside 2026)

Theatre Review: Snakes and Ladders! by Dwayne Lau (Flipside 2026)

Theatrical metaphor for how life never progresses in a straight line, but we keep rolling the dice and continue moving forward amidst the ups and downs. Back in June when Snakes & Ladders premiered as a 40-minute work-in-progress at the Esplanade Concourse, it felt like a charming autobiographical cabaret searching for a stronger narrative spine. Now expanded into a full-length production for the Esplanade’s Flipside … Continue reading Theatre Review: Snakes and Ladders! by Dwayne Lau (Flipside 2026)

Art: Hiroshi Sugimoto – Form Is Emptiness explores time, consciousness and seeing at SAM @ Tanjong Pagar

One of the first impressions inside Hiroshi Sugimoto: Form Is Emptiness is not visual in any straightforward sense, but atmospheric. The galleries seem to slow the body before the mind has time to interpret what is happening. Sound falls away into a low, diffuse hush, not quite absolute silence, but instead the softened acoustics of carpeted distance, of people unconsciously lowering their voices as they … Continue reading Art: Hiroshi Sugimoto – Form Is Emptiness explores time, consciousness and seeing at SAM @ Tanjong Pagar
