for the Southeast Asian Arts Festival 2014.
Exploring a site virtually from 6771 miles away – the distance between London and Singapore – three architectural designers in Singapore conceive a mixed-media intervention that allows visitors to form their own narrative of the Singaporean story through picking up fragments of memory.
A tale of cities is told, rising and falling, found and forgotten and found again. Like the birth of many great nations, the founding of Singapore is shrouded with mythologies. The 5-day pop-up installation in conjunction with the Southeast Asian Arts Festival invites visitors to explore the myths and legends surrounding this mysterious country-state we call home through illusory time, where the past and future exists simultaneously in the present and vice versa.
Invisible Islands is the first collaboration between Singapore-based Architectural Designers atelier | small + Fiona Tan and London-based artist Hanqing Miao.
