Thao-Nguyen Phan will expand her research on the introduction of the Latin alphabet as a writing system in Vietnam, exploring how the same transition occurred in other Southeast Asian countries such as Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines. In Vietnam, the Romanised script was first introduced in the 17th century by catholic missionaries to spread Christianity, playing a significant role in the process of colonization of the country. While official accounts celebrate the adoption of the Latin alphabet as a symbol of modernity, the implications of this historical process are far more complex and tell stories of cultural loss and gain, national amnesia, and violence.

During her residency, Alice Miceli plans to expand her current project, <i>In Depth (landmines)</i> (2014-ongoing). So far she has conducted field research in Cambodia, Colombia, and Bosnia where she photographed several mine-contaminated areas. The artist plans to examine other sites where landmines and unexploded ordnance remain an active deadly threat. She is especially interested in the landmine situation in Angola, the most heavily mined country in the world as a result of decades of conflict and civil war. The process of gathering relevant materials and managing the complex logistics required by trips to such dangerous areas are all essential components of the work. The artist intends to use her studio to experiment with different spatial presentations of <i>In Depth (landmines)</i> and to initiate new lines of research around the subject of landscape, looking into areas affected by plagues and epidemics and exploring the possibilities involved in their photographic representation.

Anna Daneri has worked with Joan Jonas on several occasions in the past, and was the production manager for the presentation of <i>They Come to Us without a Word</i> at the U.S. Pavilion during the 56th Venice Biennale. While in residence Daneri will give a Curatorial Tour of Joan Jonas:<i> They Come to Us without a Word</i> at the NTU CCA Singapore and will provide a deeper understanding of Jonas' way of working and share insights into how the artist developed the different elements of her exhibition. Daneri will research Singapore’s port city status and different mutations of trade and migration and how this has affected the psychogeographic landscape of Singapore. She will also connect with local artists to gain an awareness of Singaporean arts communities.

She will give a public presentation discussing the Scandinavian art book series <i>Dublett </i>(2012 – 2016). Each edition of <i>Dublett </i>consists of a new artist’s book and an anthology of commissioned texts on the artist or project at hand, written by contributors from a variety of disciplines that aim to cultivate art mediation within a book format. While in residence, Szefer Karlsen also aims to connect with artists, curators, writers and designers in Singapore, focusing on the intersections between editorial and curatorial practices.

Antariksa’s research interests lie in the complexities of the Indonesian art environment. In particular, art collectivism during Japanese occupation (1942–1945) and its impacts and influences on Indonesian art history.

While in residence, Arin Rungjang will investigate the phenomenon of historical rumours in Thailand and Singapore. His research aims to unearth unofficial stories that circulate by word of mouth and connect them to the politics of governance and notions of historical truth, allowing us to glimpse at popular mentalities and anxieties in a given period. Rungjang will also be using the studio space to further develop the project that he will be presenting at Kassel and Athens next year.

While in residence, Malinda will investigate Singapore’s history as a trading port, following the discovery of the Belitung shipwreck in 1998, 600 miles off the coast of Singapore that signifies the exchange of goods, ideas and cultures in the 9th century. She will work with Singaporean women to develop a collection of ceramic objects that will then enter the art market, highlighting notions of hybridity in cultural studies as well as the route of globalisation today that has existed in the region for more than a thousand years.

Wang has been working on an on-going project on Hong Kong. The project that began in 2012 is an examination of Hong Kong's cultural anxiety and crisis through a set of cinematic explorations of the city's space. In Singapore while in the residency, he will study the role of sand in Singapore, by not only tracing its physical circulation as a fundamental element for the state’s development but also its symbolic role in the cultural sphere.

Regarded as a successful model of strategic governance and urban planning across Asia, Singapore has shared her infrastructure plans and industrial development expertise with other countries since the 1990s. Choy Ka Fai intends to research the tensions and ideals that underlie the establishment of Singapore as a utopian “prototype city” investigating the multiple narratives that frame the efforts to export and, occasionally to forge, such an utopia.
