Mapping Temporalities, mud on glass, exhibition view, NIE Art Gallery, Singapore, 2022.

-

Mapping Temporalities is a large-scale mud painting on the gallery’s glass façade. The artist created the mud mixture with water and soil sourced from a nearby construction area that was being bulldozed to make way for urban transformations. These paintings were washed away when the exhibition ended, mirroring the transient nature of Singapore’s landscapes.

 
 
 

The work is part of Peripheral Spaces, an exhibition consisting of individual and collaborative installations that reflect on temporality and the semiotic transformations of nature in urban spaces.
