Synesthesia
Synesthesia is an exhibition featuring works by two Singaporean artists, Zulkifle Mahmod and Brian Gothong Tan, whose artistic practices are post-medium art by nature. Their bodies of work go beyond the expanded notion of Sculpture, employing a diversity of media such as objects, sculpture, architecture, set design, visual projections, light and sound to construct varying types and levels of sensory and immersive experiences for the viewer. Zukifle’s Sonic Encounter is minimalist in approach, with little visual stimuli and a seemingly mundane installation of suspended “globes”, but from within they emit a soundscape of re-mixed recordings selected from the city, creating an immersive auditory experience that piques the curiosity of the listener. On the other hand, Brian’s Daydreams from a lonely island is a theatrical construction of two contrasting spaces with moving images and figurines, engulfing the viewer into a different world of stillness and movement, lightness and gravity. His compelling aesthetics combines past and new content into tableaus that explores issues of personal history, culture of trauma, healing and human inter-connectedness. 02 – 19 Jul at Sculpture Square.
