<div class="event_single_venue">Residencies studios, Blocks 37 & 38 Malan Road<br /><br /><p>Residencies: <em>OPEN</em> offers a rare insight into the often introverted sphere of the artists’ studio. Through showcasing discussions, performances, research and works-in-progress, Residencies: <em>OPEN </em>profiles the diversity of contemporary art practice and the divergent ways artists conceive artwork with the studio as a constant space for experimentation and contemplation.</p>
<p class="p1"><strong>Antariksa</strong>, Block 38, Malan Road, Studio #01-05</p>
<p>As part of his residency at the NTU CCA Singapore, Antariksa researches the history of the Japanese Occupation (1942-1945) in Singapore. He is especially interested in collecting historical evidence of the propaganda strategies pursued by the occupiers and compare them with the forms of resistance and alternative visual strategies developed by the artists at the time. This project is part of a wider study on the history of art collectivism in Asia under the Japanese Occupation.</p>
<p>The presentation of archival material and images in his studio has been made possible thanks to the National Archives of Singapore.<br /><br /></p>
<p class="p1"><strong>Heman Chong</strong>, Block 38, Malan Road, Studio #01-07</p>
<p><em>The Library of Unread Books<br /></em>Ongoing project</p>
<p><em>The Library of Unread Books</em> is Heman Chong’s long-term project: a members-only reference library made up of donated books that are unread by their previous owners. The cost of a lifetime membership to the library is the donation of a single unread book. In keeping with the artist’s intimate longing for a space to go to in the dead of the night to encounter books he has never thought of reading, “night passes” will also be issued for visitors and the Library will be open for 24 hours every Friday night from 7.00pm to 7.00pm the next day.<br /><br /><span>Chong is a Singaporean artist, writer, and curator whose practice develops across a variety of media. He often works as a facilitator of situations in which new narratives and modes of intellectual exchange are enacted to rethink conventional modes of sharing and transmitting knowledge. Since 2003, he has been interested in negotiating public space as a site of speech. For his six-month research at the NTU CCA Residencies Programme, he intends to turn his studio into an artist-run space where other artists can present their works, gather for discussion, and find a quiet space for contemplation.</span></p>
<p><strong>Ho Rui An</strong>, Block 37, Malan Road, Studio #01-03</p>
<p><em>IN-RESIDENCE<br /></em>2014<br />HD video<br />17 min 30 sec</p>
<p>Produced during a residency on-board a transatlantic vessel, the video interweaves two layers of time experienced by the artist during the month-long journey: that of being “in-residence” and that of being “on expedition”. Two literary characters serve as points of reference for the film’s invisible protagonist: the colonial officer Percival from Virginia Woolf’s <em>The Waves</em> (1931) and from Italo Calvino’s novel<em> Mr Palomar</em> (1983). Exploring the dissonance between the sense of nausea experienced by the artist during the residency and the scientific scope of the expedition, the film muses upon representational technologies that turn the natural world into an image.<br /><br /><span>Ho Rui An is an artist and writer who works at the intersection of contemporary art, cinema, performance, and theory. He writes, talks, and thinks around images investigating their sites of emergence, transmission, and disappearance within the contexts of cultural production. Recently he has focused on the aesthetic form of the “lecture performance” to explore the relationship between art, research, and the circulation of knowledge. During his residency at NTU CCA Singapore, Ho intends to study the aesthetics of “futurecraft” and of “horizon scanning” programmes run both by the state and private entities.</span><br /><br /></p>
<p class="p1"><strong>Ato Malinda</strong>, Block 37, Malan Road, Studio #01-04</p>
<p><em>Drawings<br /></em>2016<br />Mixed media<br />Dimensions variable</p>
<p>Since 2012, Ato Malinda has been working on a series of drawings that relate to her innermost feelings and fantasies about gender-related issues. Often inspired by events in her life and in the life of her friends, the drawings outline half-human, half-animal creatures caught up in intimate situations and pensive poses.</p>
<p><em>On fait ensemble<br /></em>2010<br />HD video<br />10 min<br /><br />Mami Wata was a water spirit worshipped in Africa long before the arrival of the Europeans. In the 1880s a German hunter married a Southeast Asian woman and brought her to Hamburg where she performed in <em>Völkerschau</em> (human zoo) as a snake charmer. A lithograph of hers was reprinted in Bombay in 1955 and eventually came to West Africa where it was recognised as a portrait of Mami Wata. Re-enacting the arrival of the image in Africa, the artist reflects on the complex patterns of exchange and contamination that determine cultural identities.<br /><br /><span>The work of Malinda encompasses performance, drawing, painting, installation, video, and ceramic sculpture and investigates the nature of African identity, contesting notions of authenticity as well as fixed assumptions about gender and sexuality. During her residency at the NTU CCA Singapore, she is conducting archival research on the Tang shipwreck — occurred 380 miles off the Singapore Strait around 830 CE — to explore concepts of hybridity and globalisation in relation to Singapore’s history of sea trading and porcelain manufacturing.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><strong>Bo Wang</strong>, Block 37, Malan Road, Studio #01-02</p>
<p class="p1"><em>Spectrum, or the Singapore Dan Flavin</em><br />2016<br />Seven fluorescent tubes</p>
<p class="p2">With a formalistic reference to Dan Flavin, seven fluorescent tubes are arranged in a grid structure that propagates different shades of white in the space. The spectrum of white lights are in different colour temperatures, which were sampled from various social spaces in Singapore, from polished restaurant, luxury hotel, to industrial buildings and dormitory of migrant workers.<br /><br /><span>As a visual artist and a film maker, Bo Wang observes contemporary urban landscapes that are undergoing intensified processes of transformation and excavates the power structures and cultural anxieties related to these accelerated forms of transitions. His work depicts provocative portraits of China examining the ways in which the State retains its authoritarian way of rule while pursuing capitalism. For his residency at NTU CCA Singapore, Wang is researching the politics of space, issues of territorial expansion, and the social implications surrounding the pursuit of sand in Singapore where 22% of her land mass has been reclaimed from the sea through sand acquired from neighbouring countries.</span></p>

<div><strong>BIOGRAPHY</strong><br /><p class="p1"><span><b>H</b><b>eman Chong</b></span> (Singapore)</p>
<p class="p1">The first iteration of a ten-year-long project, Heman Chong's <em>The Library of Unread Books</em> develops from the artist's deep-seated longing for books. It is a members-only reference library made up of donated books that are unread by their previous owners. The cost of a lifetime member- ship to the library is the donation of one unread book. By receiving and revealing that which people choose not to read, the Library is the result of acollectivegestureandtracestheperimetersofunwantedknowledge. Managed in collaboration with chief librarian Renée Staal, the library is open every Friday from 12.00pm to 12.00am until the end of February.</p>
<p class="p1"><span><b>Ho Rui An</b></span> (Singapore)</p>
<p class="p1">A combined presentation by Artist-in-Residence Ho Rui An and artist Tan Biyun, <em>Future Trees and the Pulp of History</em> explores their shared interests in participatory democracies, historical archives, and speculative futures. Both artists engage various strategies to rearrange existing narrative structures and activate new forms of political imagination.<br /><br />For the first time in Singapore, Ho exhibits the documentation of<em> Screen Green</em> (2015-16), a lecture perfomance that probes the politics of screening and greening in the city-state. Conceived as a “protest against forgetting” (Eric Hobsbawn), Tan's <em>The Unforgetting Space</em> seeks a more inclusive understanding of the past and triggers the process of reclaiming the writing of history from the authorities. This participatory project features several textbooks dating from the 1970s and two old typewriters inviting the audiences to retype historical episodes selected from the books.<br /><br />The works will be on view from 12 November to 10 December 2016, every Saturday and Sunday, from 12.00pm to 7.00pm.</p>
<p class="p1"><span><b>Arin Rungjang</b></span> (Thailand)</p>
<p class="p1">Investigating the phenomenon of historical rumours in Thailand and Singapore Arin Rungjang’s research aims to unearth unofficial stories that circulate by word of mouth to explore the ways in which they subtly infiltrate dominant notions of historical truth and shape our collective imagery.<br /><br />Produced during the residency, the video interview with Johnston Anderson Cheong captures an intimate and poignant dialogue. This heart-warming exchange delves not only into Cheong’s personal history, memories, family relationships, and struggles growing up as an albino in Singapore, but it also prompts a broader reflection on common perceptions and prescribed social norms.</p>
<p class="p1"><span><b>SHIMURAbros</b></span> (Japan/Germany)</p>
<p class="p1">During their residency, SHIMURAbros will expand their previous research on Singapore’s archaeology and film history to explore the reverse trajectories and movements of various archaeological items from Southeast Asia to Singapore. Their research materials include books, photographs, documents, films, and archival footage.<br /><br />In <em>24!=</em> the artists rearranged the 24 frames composing one second in the first feature-length motion picture with synchronized sound, <em>The Jazz Singer</em> (1927), when the sentence “You ain't heard nothing yet" is spoken, according to all the possible permutations of the 24 frames. The time needed to screen the whole film exceeds the life-span of a star.</p>
<p class="p1"><span><b>Tamara Weber</b></span> (United States)</p>
<p class="p1">In the last year, Tamara Weber has been working closely with New York-based curator Annie Seaton on <em>Close Readings</em>, a collaborative project of visual investigation that casts an anthropomorphising look on architecture and other bodies. Centred around the logic of the book, <em>Close Readings</em> features a series of interactive textual images that reference 1960s advertising, botanical imagery, pulps, abstraction, and Eugenic vignettes. These works are created via repetition, textual insertions, and implantation (“re-rooting”) into other media and they are meant to be continuously deconstructed, disassembled, and re-constructed through an open-ended editorial process that unfolds multiple meanings.</p>

<br />Heman Chong’s <i>A Short Story About Geometry</i> is a transaction between an instructor and a participant, with the main “protagonist” being a short story written by the artist in 2009. It is the first of seven stories, each approximately 500 words long and specifically written to be transmitted via memorising the story, word for word. The story is taught only verbally by the instructor, who holds the text in her hands. <br /><br />Participants are requested to not leave the room until the transaction is completed, and they have memorised the story by heart. Chong has promised that this story will never be published neither on paper nor digitally; the content remains known only to the instructor and the participants. As they offer their time and energy to receive the gift of the story, a unique way of ‘reading’ it emerges each time this situation occurs. <br /><br />Transactions will take place Saturdays and Sundays over the course of the exhibition period, 21 September – 6 November 2018, starting each day from 1.00pm. <br /><br />To book a slot with your personal coach, please email your preferred day and time to: ntuccaevents@ntu.edu.sg<br /><br />A programme of <em>Stagings.

<br />Who owns a public institution? How does an institution balance the different sets of expectations held by its various stakeholders? What is the role of an international advisory board and how does it contribute to the institution’s development within a global perspective? Shifting the top-down operational model, can an institution learn from artists and incorporate artistic methodologies into its own structure? To address such questions, this session brings together several members of the NTU CCA Singapore’s International Advisory Board into a public discussion with representatives of the Centre’s stakeholders. The session will be moderated by Founding Director Ute Meta Bauer and preceded by Heman Chong’s performance Words, They, Wrote (2015 – ongoing).
