Gillman Barracks is a group of conserved colonial barracks and home to a number of well-established galleries, forming one of the main nuclei in Singapore for contemporary art. Amidst the rustic charm and lush greenery, Sundaram Tagore will bring together the new and recent works of eight notable Southeast Asian female artists with an exhibition titled Disobedient Bodies: Reclaiming Her. Working across a range of mediums, the artists deconstruct rigid ideologies related to race, identity, tradition and sexuality. Richard Koh Fine Art will hold the first solo exhibition by the Burmese artist duo Tun Win Aung and Wah Nu. The Squares features a new series from the artists’ ongoing project, Thousand Pieces of White (begun in 2009), a reflective body of work that delves into three decades of personal and political history in Myanmar.

Yeo Workshop will present new artworks by Fyerool Darma titled krØmæ§piritⱫ, which combines found industrial materials with stock photos—pre-existing, commercially available images—and generative images, which are created through algorithms or AI processes. The Columns Gallery will present the first solo exhibition of Shourouk Rhaiem in Singapore, Memory and Metamorphosis, which invites audiences to witness the alchemy of transforming mundane objects into extraordinary creations. Ota Fine Arts will hold a group exhibition titled In Dialogue, featuring an array of artists, including Yayoi Kusama and Atreyu Moniaga, reflecting the diversity of expressions of contemporary art today.

FOST Gallery presents A CUBE IS A CUBE IS A CUBE, an interdisciplinary exhibition where artist Grace Tan explores dimensionality in flux through the cube, a three-dimensional object bounded by six congruent square faces, challenging our preconceived notions of stability and solidity. Be sure to also pop into Ames Yavuz, who will be presenting ‘a gesture, a room, a memory’, an exhibition where contemporary artists contemplate the domestic, the everyday, and the small epiphanies of the moments in-between.
