Day THREE / LIVE #1: Contract With the Skin
/// Saturday 6th October 1:00 - 5:00pm ///

DOCUMENTATION

Contract with the Skin is an afternoon of performances and durational actions. It comprises a gathering of performance artists, each presenting work in a shared space, one after the other, sometimes overlapping, merging beginnings and endings. With their body as archive and site of action, across space and time, they come individually and work collectively. Identity is only a placeholder for the wide range of individual practices and research that investigate across themes of racial and social justice, gender and sexual politics, body and material, voice and sound, public engagement and social experiment. Artists include: Eunjung Kim, Nicholas Tee, Tianqi Liu, Kimvi Nguyen, Ada Hao, You He, Quek Jia Qi, Menting Zhuo, Bettina Fung, Ying Xue, Ni Li, Yanwen Xiong, Boram Moon, Howl Yuan.

Alongside this programme curated by Ada Hao (PAPRIKA Collective) in collaboration with Bettina Fung, Artists Samboleap Tol and Abbas Zahedi will be running a 'LIVE ARCHIVE / artist' workshop inviting audiences to participate.

Over the three days Chi Bagtas and Glo Orpilla will be running PASAWAY SARI SARI STORE #000. This project is kindly supported by S.E.A Focus. http://facebook.com/seafocussg
