<p style="font-weight:400;"><span>Branching out from previous collaborative research on spiritual mapping, Zachary Chan will spend his residency developing maps and diagrams as a way of building an archive of the charismatic evangelical movement in Singapore. </span></p>
<p style="font-weight:400;"><span>Using ideas of spiritual mapping, where ‘territorial demons’ of a geographical location are identified, the artist intends to chart the history of the charismatic movement in Singapore beginning from the first recorded instance of glossolalia to current Christian eschatologies. In the process of charting such histories through maps and diagrams, conceptualisations of the ‘territorial spirits of the land’, the dichotomy between the demon/demonised, and the understanding of material spaces through such a lens will be dissected. Using self-portraiture alongside map-making, the research grounded in discourses of spiritual warfare will serve as a form of autoethnography. Through image-making, the artist hopes to formalise the research into frameworks that will structure his development within performative expressions, installations, the moving image, and sound. </span></p>

<strong>Residencies OPEN</strong> showcases the diversity of contemporary art practices and reveals how the space of the studio constitutes a springboard for artistic research and experimentation. This session of Residencies OPEN as part of Singapore Art Week 2023 offers a unique opportunity for the public to meet Artists-in-Residence <strong>Zachary Chan</strong>, <strong>Min-Wei Ting</strong>, and <strong>Wang Ruobing</strong> (all Singapore)! Come visit the NTU CCA Singapore Residencies Studios for a special insight into their works-in-progress and to explore the processes and research interests developed during their residencies.<br /><p>The 9<sup>th</sup> Cycle of the Residencies Programme by NTU Centre for Contemporary Art Singapore is supported by <strong>National Arts Council Singapore. </strong>This cycle hosts six Singapore Artists-in-Residence: Fazleen Karlan, Hilmi Johandi, Priyageetha Dia, Zachary Chan, Min-Wei Ting and Wang Ruobing.</p>
<p><strong><a href="https://ntu.ccasingapore.org/residencies/zachary-chan">Zachary Chan</a></strong></p>
<p>Saturday, 14 January – Sunday, 15 January 2023<br />1:00 – 7:00pm<br />Block 37 Malan Road, #01-01</p>
<p><em>Second Heaven Revelations</em> (working title)<br />in collaboration with Nai Iyn Huii<br />installation, mixed materials</p>
<p></p>
<p>During his five-month residency, Zachary Chan has researched Pentecostal Christianity—the religion that defined the artist’s own upbringing—and the practice of spiritual mapping in the context of Singapore. Interweaving personal narratives, historical anecdotes, religious texts, and environmental demonology, Zachary’ s installation explores the heterogenous manifestations of malevolent forces in this religious doctrine.</p>
<p>Configured as a chapel, the colourful installation features a tapestry as altar piece. The tapestry is surrounded by soft sculptures that emanate the joyful naivety of children’s toys. However, these innocent, everyday objects may resonate with different meanings for those who subscribe to specific belief systems. Amidst a jocose iconography loom figures that refer to complex theological concepts such as the trichotomy of body/soul/mind as well as Christological symbols and various embodiments of malevolent entities. Recurring throughout the installation is the motif of the snake, the biblical symbol of temptation and sin while the floor piece consists of a long-tongued turtle resting on the outline of Singapore. In several Asian cosmologies, marine creatures play a significant role and a giant turtle, known as the Cosmic Turtle, is believed to bear the world on its shell. Following the Old Testament, some Christian denominations stigmatise the marine kingdom as the realm of chaos and demons. For some believers, marine demons have to be tamed in order to ensure the “revival” of coastal societies.</p>
<p>Through the playful transfiguration of demonological concepts, Zachary’s work hints to the porous divide between the everyday and the spiritual and it prompts viewers to reflect upon the manifold implications of religious worldviews.</p>
<p><strong><a href="https://ntu.ccasingapore.org/residencies/">Min-Wei Ting</a></strong></p>
<p>Saturday, 14 January – Sunday, 15 January 2023<br />1:00 – 7:00pm<br />Block 37 Malan Road, #01-02</p>
<p>work-in-progress<br />double-channel projection, colour, sound, approx. 10 min</p>
<p>As a continuation of his growing interest in the state’s response to climate change and rising sea levels, Min-Wei Ting has spent his residency looking at infrastructural projects that are being developed in Singapore to mitigate climate crisis. Employing the camera as a means to probe, capture, and ponder, the artist is documenting the labour and processes involved in these projects. The presentation for Residencies OPEN conveys the artist’s work-in-progress through a double-channel projection. A close-up scrutiny of an old flood level gauge gives way to rising water in a monsoon drain. A wide-angle meditation encompasses the journey of sand delivered on slow-moving barges from the sea—sand is the material most used to alter the island country’s morphology—while sand mountains loom quietly in the distance. In the flux of these engrossing visual sequences, the lines that connect Singapore’s meticulous management of water, the influx of material and human resources from her neighbouring countries, and the constant restructuring of the landscape become increasingly entangled.<br /><br /></p>
<p><strong><a href="https://ntu.ccasingapore.org/residency/wang-ruobing/">Wang Ruobing</a></strong></p>
<p>Saturday, 14 January – Sunday, 15 January 2023<br />1:00 – 7:00pm<br />Block 37 Malan Road, #01-03</p>
<p>Expanding her enquiry into the symbiotic relationship between environmental knowledge and the visual arts, Wang Ruobing has started a collaboration with the Earth Observatory of Singapore (NTU) to research the themes of sustainability and interconnectivity from a multidisciplinary perspective. For Residencies OPEN, visitors can explore the multiplicity of techniques and materials Ruobing has been experimenting with throughout the artist’s residency. Drawing from Donna J. Haraway’s theories of ‘sympoiesis’ (making-with), Ruobing’s research-in-progress, tentatively titled <em>Living with the Trouble</em>, makes use of found marine debris and suspended mud sediments generously donated from scientists and volunteer deep-sea divers. Honing in on Singapore’s marine coastline ecosystem as a field of enquiry, Ruobing’s research reflects on the waste produced by our lifestyles, the life-cycle of man-made products, and the global impact of ocean pollution. The studio presentation includes the vast array of materials the artist has been sourcing and working with in the past few months as well as the prototype of a kinetic installation wherein marine debris float in a cloud made of mud powder within a globe-shaped dome.</p>
<p>As an extension of her open studio presentation, Ruobing will be in discussion with her collaborator, Dr Kyle Morgan from the NTU’s Earth Observatory of Singapore. In this session of Residencies INSIGHTS, the two will tell the story of how a scientist and an artist are willing to turn trash into treasure and of how mud collected during scientific experiments can be used to make a work of art.</p>
<p>Titled <em>Bridging art and science to raise awareness on environmental issues</em>, the talk will take place on Saturday 14 January, 3.00 -4.30pm, Block 37 Malan Road, #01-04.

<p>Introduction by <strong>Professor Ute Meta Bauer</strong>, Founding Director, NTU CCA Singapore, and Professor, School of Art, Design and Media (ADM), NTU<br /><br /><em>Vampir-Cuadecuc</em> is arguably one of the key films for understanding the transition in the Spanish film world from the period of the “new cinemas” (permitted by the Franco government) towards the illegal, clandestine, or openly antagonistic practices against the Franco regime. The film consists of shooting the filming of a commercial film <em>El Conde Drácula</em> by Jesús Franco. Portabella practices two types of violence on the standard narrative: he totally eliminates colour and substitutes the soundtrack with a landscape of image-sound collisions by Carles Santos. Filmed provocatively in 16mm with sound negative, <i>Vampire-Cuadecuc </i>stages the tensions between the black and white of the film stock, and reveals the “fantasmatic materialism” that dominant narrative cinema is reliant upon.</p>

Seeking inspiration, the poet follows the princess to the land of the dead, through Cocteau’s famous mirrored portal. Translating this Greek myth by adapting the story about love, death, and the underworld into a modern scenario allows Cocteau to resonate political questions concerning some younger historical events like war, oppression, and Nazism. This film is the central part of Cocteau’s <em>Orphic Trilogy</em>, the other two being <em>The Blood of a Poet</em> (1930) and <em>Testament of Orpheus</em> (1960).</p>

"What happens to the relation of mnemonic past and theatrical present when the screen functions as the field of phantasms that are liberated by artistic intervention from the certainties of their mythological, historical, and cinematic pasts?" This emphasis on artistic retellings in the present of weighty phantasms from the historical past will then lead to further reflection on their bearing on the future. "What might it mean that prior utopian aspirations might now be recast as the unsettlings of uncertain futurity? Might the contemporary re-theatricalization of the screen provide a historically distinct approach to futurity? Or might futurity already be in our grasp either through digital orientations of 'future cinemas' or through the sudden arrival of futurity via the vexing uncertainties of the anthroprocene and global collapse?"<br /><br />A public programme of <em>Theatical Fields: Critical strategies in performance, film and video</em>.

<div class="event_single_venue">The Single Screen, Block 43 Malan Road<br /><br /><span>On the occasion of the exhibition </span><em>Ghost and Spectres – Shadows of History</em><span> curated by Professor Ute Meta Bauer and Khim Ong, and the 4th anniversary of NTU CCA Singapore.<br /></span><br />Taking the works in the current show as points of departure, the symposium brings together the artists of the exhibition, as well as curators and scholars researching on the subject matter, to generate a discussion on muted histories and legacies, as they cast light upon past events that still impact society today, particularly in terms of power structures and restriction of social freedom. The role of the moving image—the medium used by the four exhibiting artists—will be analysed to demonstrate how it reveals, as much as it conceals, past traumas that evade representation.<br /><p>Divided into two sessions, the symposium explores the artists’ working processes and methodological approaches through structured conversations consisting of lectures, presentations, and moderated discussions. The focus will lie on the sources of inspiration as well as on the motivations of the artists’ practices, and on the construction and contestation of official narratives. <strong>Ho Tzu Nyen</strong>, <strong>Nguyen Trinh Thi</strong>, and <strong>Park Chan-kyong</strong> will expand on the historical events and socio-political contexts that feed into their work, and on the different strategies employed to revive collective memory. Scholar <strong>Dr Clare Veal</strong> will highlight the medium specificity in the works of Apichatpong Weerasethakul to address conflicted histories, whereas the lectures by curators Dr June Yap and Hyunjin Kim, as well as the keynote lectures by <strong>Dr May Adadol Ingawanij</strong> and <strong>Professor Kenneth Dean</strong>, aim to articulate the complicated geopolitical relations in contemporary Asia.<br /><br /></p>
<p><strong>11.00am – 1.10pm</strong><br /><strong>Session I: <em>Shadows of History</em></strong></p>
<p>Chaired by <strong>Dr Roger Nelson, </strong>curator and art historian, Post-Doctoral Research Fellow, School of Art Design and Media, Nanyang Technological University (NTU), and NTU CCA Singapore</p>
<p>Dedicated to the uncovering of neglected histories, this session will look at the construction of historical narratives and their role in reflecting social, political, and cultural conditions. Occluded by the propagation of progress and nation building, what has been left out and rendered unspeakable in the region’s bid to establish national identities and political autonomy? Referencing the works of Ho Tzu Nyen and Nguyen Trinh Thi, this session traces post-war and Cold War legacies in Asia and investigates their lingering spectres.</p>
<p><strong>2.30 – 5.30pm</strong><br /><strong>Session II: <em>Ghosts and Spectres</em></strong></p>
<p>Chaired by <strong>Dr David Teh, </strong>researcher and curator, Assistant Professor, Department of English Language and Literature, National University of Singapore (NUS)</p>
<p>Referencing the works of Park Chan-kyong and Apichatpong Weerasethakul, this session deals with notions of ghosts and spectres as allegories of historical moments and dreamlike realities. Embedded in myths and folklore, what roles do they play in constructing an understanding of the past and in reflecting socio-political circumstances? How do cinematic works engage their medium-specificity in a play of historical phantoms and repressed collective memories, to create a language for portraying trauma, loss, dreams, and nightmares?</p>

Biographical Text
Long-form biography for the Contributor (no character count). A short-form biography (no more than 240 characters) should be added to the Contributor's Description
<span>Marcel Dzama is a contemporary Canadian artist and designer known for his whimsical illustrations. Dzama's ink-and-watercolor figure drawings are often fantastical in nature, recalling Surrealism and Folk Art in their inventive scenes featuring anthropomorphized animals and objects. “I love when art or mythology has a sense of humor—I feel an immediate engagement that transcends time,” the artist has said. Born on May 4, 1974 in Winnipeg, Canada, Dzama received his BFA in 1997 from the University of Manitoba. The influence of Marcel Duchamp and Francis Picabia, in particular, can be seen in Dzama’s playful film Une danse des bouffons (A Jester’s Dance) (2013), while Dzama’s dioramas bear similarities to those of Joseph Cornell. In 2013, working with Raymond Pettibon, Dave Eggers, and Spike Jonze, Dzama produced the illustrated monograph Marcel Dzama: Sower of Discord, featuring more than 500 color images. The artist’s works can be found in the collections of the National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa, The Museum of Modern Art in New York, and the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., among others. He currently lives and works in Brooklyn, NY.</span>

<em>Mystic and Momok </em>by Russell Morton. Film Screening (on loop) HD video (16:9), stereo, 18min 10sec, 2021 Rating: PG <br />Saturday, 18 September 2021, 1:00 – 7:00pm The Screening Room Block 38 Malan Road, #01-06<br /><br /><span>Completed during the residency, Russell Morton’s latest short film revolves around the eclectic and versatile figure of Mohammad Din Mohammad (1955 – 2007). Artist and mystic, traditional healer and idiosyncratic collector of Southeast Asian cultural items, Mohammad Din Mohammad was also an actor and a silat master. Playfully disclosing the production limitations imposed by the pandemic, the film evokes Mohammad’s multifaceted personality through the faces, voices, and memories of the artist’s family members and an experimental process where affects and sounds are mediated by technology. As it unfolds, the film grows into an upbeat stream of visuals and sounds mixed by Momok, a computer algorithm created by artist bani haykal.</span><br /><br /><em>Mystic and Momok </em><span>was commissioned by National Gallery Singapore for the exhibition S</span><em>omething New Must Turn Up: Six Singaporean Artists After 1965 </em><span>(7 May – 22 August 2021) which featured Mohammad Din Mohammad’s works.</span>
