As it is...
Victor Tan

This site-specific installation by Victor Tan, a gifted sculptor, offers a celebration of life, movement, the human form and freedom to experience in a site of contemplation. Taken from the intimate and private space of the artist's working studio located at Telok Kurau Studios to the public domain of the Esplanade Concourse, this work offers up an unusual sensitivity.

Trip the Light Fantastic
Chen Kunyi
Singapore

Kunyi is compelled by her love for dance and drawing to look at dance as if it were a three-dimensional drawing process, rendering lines, patterns and forms in the air. In contrast, the static product of a drawing belies the intense physical activity of its creation which, in its transcience of activity and the creation of its lines and marks, mirrors dance. She explores the relationship between these two art forms, creating movements and forms in drawing that parallel those of dance. The feelings, aesthetic qualities and percussive syncopation of an original dance form become expressed by or transposed into the elements of animation film-making where the creation of the "moving picture" is rooted in the language of dance.
