Residencies Studio Sessions: in effigy, Workshop by Kin Chui (Singapore), Artist-in-Residence

12 Sep 2020, Sat 04:00 PM - 07:00 PM

Developed in the wake of along waves of gravity –a solidar   y of holes, this participatory workshop further explores Artist-in-Residence Kin Chui’s interests in the histories, ideologies, and cultural contexts of monuments as well as their purchase on collective memory. Scheduled during Hungry Ghost Festival, the workshop is a hands-on session of “monument making” which takes its cue from the traditional rituals of the seventh lunar month when bamboo and rice paper effigies are burnt to appease wandering spirits. By building ephemeral structures inspired by existing and/or imaginary monuments and consigning them to a speculative afterlife, workshop participants will embark on a journey where symbols and shared ideals are transformed and regenerated.

The workshop is free and by registration only. Available spaces are limited.
