Cj Hendry and IMBA Theatre open juju world in Singapore, the fun, inflatable playground for kidults, as follow-up to wildly successful Flower Market

The first thing you notice about juju world is the overwhelming, oversaturation of yellow, so total it behaves like architecture. Yellow does not sit within the exhibition, it defines it. The space is flooded in it: staff dressed in yellow uniforms, inflatable yellow flowers erupting from the ground, and giant inflatable jujus attached to structures like climbable soft sculptures. Visitors move through oversized yellow slides … Continue reading Cj Hendry and IMBA Theatre open juju world in Singapore, the fun, inflatable playground for kidults, as follow-up to wildly successful Flower Market

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: 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
