Sneak peek into Unnatural Beauty
October 21, 2009
Here’s a sneak peek of the installation art exhibition we’re curating in conjunction with Singapore Design Festival 2009. The installation is created from biodegradable forks and spoons made from corn starch. These forks and spoons are painstakingly attached with nylon lines so that they can be reused after the exhibition. The inspiration behind is plastic waste and we hope to create more awareness and motivation for individuals to change their plastic consumption habits. Last year, the inconspicuous coffee stirrer, plastic bags, takeway lunch boxes, plastic forks and spoons all add up to a hefty 640 million kg of plastic waste in Singapore alone.
Join us at The Arts House, 20 Nov – 4 Dec 2009. Free Admission. You can also follow us on Facebook and Twitter.
Asia on the Edge / JING
October 9, 2009
Last month was an exciting season for The Arts House. It saw the opening of the Asia On The Edge 2009 season which showcased forward looking Asian crafts, performances and theatre work. We were commissioned to create the identity for JING (Quietness) – an unconventional fashion-gastronomy-theatre experience inspired by the works of a French philosopher, Michel Foucault. Madness, discipline, punishment, order, knowledge and lingerie – what a heady mix of philosophy and sensory enjoyment!
Inspired by the works of renowned 20th century French philosopher Michel Foucault and using lingerie as a metaphor, JING is an original work performed by new faces in the modelling scene from the Shanghai Institute of Visual Arts and will introduce to Singapore for the first time the designs of leading Beijing lingerie company Aimer Group.
