  • Heman Chong in Conversation with Lee Ambrozy
    The Social Architecture of “Situations”: Heman Chong in Conversation with Lee Ambrozy Luca Lenglet, Soft Corners, 2014, sculpture, in The Part in the Story Where A Part Becomes A Part of Something Else, as part of Moderation(s), Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art, Rotterdam. Photo: Aad Hoogendoorn. eman Chong is an artist whose work dissolves boundaries among literature and the performing and visual arts. As the chief Harchitect of the Moderation(s) project, he expanded his role to include that of institutional curator, employing a range of collaborative methodologies to investigate new ways of refreshing modes of production. In this conversation, through dialogue with Moderation(s) participant and art historian Lee Ambrozy, Heman Chong elaborates on the strategies this multi-platform project employed to expand what contemporary art production can be. He elaborates on the goals and methodologies embedded within the project, revealing how Singaporean art collectives of the 1990s, Contact Improvisation, and graphic design inspired the program for Moderation(s). The collaborative frameworks that emerged over twenty-four months in Moderation(s) revealed the fragility of epistemological hierarchies within the art world and the permeable boundaries between the roles that have come to be established with it. The resulting situations expanded and blurred the roles of the participants, and, similarly, migration between two geographically and culturally divergent centres—Witte de With in Rotterdam and Spring Workshop in Hong Kong—lent Moderation(s) an ephemeral character that eluded conventional definition. Heman Chong’s remarks below demonstrate how artists’ roles have adapted to overlapping cultural contexts and shifting geographies.

  • Weilengtay Chanhampe Cata
    Benjamin Hampe When Chan Hampe Galleries opened its doors in 2010, the gallery’s aim was to “create a platform for East-West cultural exchange by exhibiting and promoting contemporary art with a primary focus on Singapore”. As the gallery developed, the emphasis on “East-West” became less relevant. “East-West” was far too simplistic a description for the programme and the complex art practices it represented. Wei Leng Tay is one of many Singaporean artists working abroad, including Heman Chong, Ho Tzu Nyen, Suzann Victor, and Ming Wong, who represent Singapore in various biennales, exhibitions, and art fairs. The idea of a “Singaporean artist” is linked to a porous concept of “Singaporean-ness”, a principal characteristic of which is racial diversity. Many years ago, I had the pleasure of seeing Wei Leng’s Discordant Symmetries exhibition at the NUS Museum Baba House (Singapore, 2011). She approached this project, even though she had by then not lived in Singapore for more than a decade, from the perspective of a third-generation ethnic Chinese—born, bred and largely educated in Singapore. However, setting up base in Hong Kong, a place more ethnically homogenous and familiar, and yet less welcoming than her home country, had stirred deep-seated questions about difference and inclusion. This experience and the nuances behind these perceptions continue to inform Wei Leng’s practice. The issues and perspectives illuminated by Wei Leng for her show are very close to my heart as someone with mixed parentage. I constantly strive to understand myself and have come to embrace who I am as a “Millennium Child”, a term endearingly tagged onto me by my playwright friend, Bille Brown.

  • Ming Wong's Art of Imitation
    Ming Wong’s Imitations Barbara Mennel Ming Wong’s Art of Imitation Life of Imitation—the installation prepared by Singaporean performance and multi- media artist Ming Wong for his solo exhibition in the Singapore Pavilion at the 2009 Venice Biennale—restages a pivotal scene from Imitation of Life, Douglas Sirk’s famous 1959 Hollywood maternal melodrama, closely replicating its stage blocking of characters, dialogue, and shot composition. Figure 1: Ming Wong’s Life of Imitation at the Singapore Pavilion at the Venice Biennale Source: Ming Wong, Life of Imitation, 2009; two channel video installation Courtesy: carlier | gebauer, Berlin and Vitamin Creative Space, Guangzhou Full Clip: http://transit.berkeley.edu/2014/mennel-2/ In Wong’s double projection, the three Singaporean actors Sebastian Tan, Moe Kasim, and Alle Majeed—each a member of one of the country’s dominant ethnic groups (Chinese, Malayan, and Indian)—systematically rotate through the female roles of the source material.1 In the key scene from Imitation of Life, the African American maid Annie Johnson, one of the two lead female characters, is visiting her light-skinned daughter Sarah Jane at her workplace in a Los Angeles nightclub. To pass as white, Sarah Jane had previously run away and renounced her mother, who was only able to track her down with the help of a private detective. After a confrontation between the two in a motel room, which ends in a tearful embrace, Sarah Jane’s friend (billed as “Showgirl”) happens to enter and becomes a witness to Sarah Jane’s racial passing, which her mother reinforces by pretending to be her former mammy.
