This is the catalogue of a group exhibition featuring artworks by 6 artists. Here are a few words from the artists:
'As an underexposed contemporary art form in Singapore, we hope to bring Land Art to the attention of the public. Singaporeans identify more with the urban landscape than with the expansive foreign landscapes typical in Western Land Art. As such, the six artists in this exhibition have chosen to transform a historic indoor site with materials such as clay, charcoal, salt and wax, water and light, hemp ropes and earth, sand, and grass... Our aim is to invite our viewers to slowdown and contemplate the beauty of nature while still immersed in the commotion of a fast-paced urban society'.
Brief artist biographies as well as introduction to their artworks.
