Exploit (Bukit Brown Cemetery II) @ Bermondsey Project Space
Private View: Thursday June 12, 6.30 – 10 PM
How do we talk to each-other when our communication is mediated by language and technology across time and space? In this exhibition twenty-two established and up-and-coming artists from the United Kingdom and Singapore address this theme with diverse and exhilarating responses.
Works range from Eleanor Moreton’s I Narcissus, her re-interpretation of the Greek myth of Echo and Narcissus and Dan Hays’s painting of his Colorado doppelganger to Tania De Rozario and Lynn Lu’s two-room installation Fuse with myriad grazing silkworms.
In her haunting film Fragments on Machines Emma Charles observes the evolution of New York’s architecture to accommodate the matconnectors that comprise the physical manifestation of the “virtual” world. Natalie Dawkins uses humour in works exploring the ways in which we control – and are controlled by – social media. Min-Wei Ting’s elegiac work You’re Dead To Me communes with the tropical forests and ancient tombs of Singapore’s Bukit Brown cemetery, a location further explored in Zai Tang and Simon Ball’s animated soundscape composition Exploit (Bukit Brown Cemetery II).
In Love, Piracy Manu Luksch invites visitors to collaborate in an act of undermining censorship, while Sarah Choo’s film Hidden Dimension explores moments of solitude within contemporary family life, and Debbie Ding’s gentle sculptural work Lint reflects on intimacy and traces in a long-distance relationship.
On the evening of Saturday June 14th at the gallery will also host ‘Broken Telephone’, a celebration of contemporary Singaporean and British writing and poetry presented by Singapore writer and artist TaniaDe Rozario, with invited guest writers.
Ghost of the Wire= is an immersive and richly textured show which asks us to think again about our public and private modes of communication in the modern age.

Superposition(s) @ ICAS
The artwork is at its most contemporary within the studio, always a moment too late after.
I will be taking part in Superposition(s), a curatorial project of overlapping encounters: between curators and artists, designers and image-makers; between practitioners and audience; between the imagined publics of curators and artists. It aims to chart the processual relationships between these encounters, tracing the spaces between collaboration and resistance. For the duration of the exhibition, artists share and convert the space of the exhibition into their own studio spaces. The audience is encouraged to observe and engage with the artists, experiencing not the artworks themselves but rather the different processes of each artist’s practice. At the same time, curators and writers contribute texts as a response to the artists and their process of developing a work, and to also frame the way audience members encounter the entire space of the exhibition.
Sat 22nd March – Sun 20th April 2014 @ Earl Lu Gallery, LASALLE

“Drifting across the shimmering, pebble-clad riverbanks of the Thames, to the spicy shores of South-East Asia, the listener sets sail in a long-tail, deep into uncharted waters where tentacles flail seductively amidst volatile currents and crushing waves.”
