In the fourth edition of i Light Marina Bay, the festival’s curatorial team – consisting of Mr Randy Chan, Principal Architect at Zarch Collaboratives, Singapore, and Mr Khairuddin Hori, Deputy Director of Artistic Programming at Palais de Tokyo, Paris – has introduced the theme of “In Praise of Shadows”, inspired by Junichiro Tanizaki’s seminal essay of the same title.
Challenging the obsession that brighter is better and seeking to reframe perceptions of light and sustainability, the team hopes to inspire artists and festival-goers to re-imagine and reconsider sustainability issues in a new light and come together to create and sustain a harmonious relationship with our environment.
From 4 to 27 March, 25 sustainable light art installations will transform Marina Bay into a kaleidoscopic display of light, colour and shadow.

UNSEEN: TOUCH FIELD
By Alecia Neo (Singapore) Location: The Float @ Marina Bay, under the Seating Gallery
About the installation Unfolding like an endless topographical illustration within a floating tunnel, Unseen: Touch Field depicts the cityscapes of Singapore and Taipei as a drawing that is meant to be ‘seen’ in the dark, using the touch of the hand instead of the gaze of the eye. The work invites visitors to experience the reality of visually-impaired individuals.
The installation is based on an ongoing series of work Neo first undertook with blind and sight- impaired participants from the two cities, where the artist collaborated with the participants to create photographic self-portraits and images of their surroundings. These were subsequently rendered into the ‘braille drawings’ of Touch Field. Bereft of sight, the body adjusts to heighten other senses like touch – it is this human ability to adjust in the face of challenging conditions that is a characteristic shared by many, showing that people are more alike than we often believe to be true.
About the artist Alecia Neo is a visual artist trained in the field of photography with special interest in how people and places experience and cope with loss and the healing rituals we adopt. She is interested in how our environments shape our behavior, and how active listening and participation can aid in shifting public perception.
