This is a photograph taken by #TanPinPin @pinpincam in 2007 during a press walk thru of #WE, an exhibition curated by #AhmadMashadi and I in #2007. It shows me making things up as I go along, Ahmad being completely terrified because he knows I'm just making things up and #AdelineChia (who was writing for #TheStraitsTimes then) taking notes. 2007 is such a long time ago. Date: 28 July – 4 November 2007, #NUSMuseum @nusmuseum WE - an everyday term. Its familiarity and #ubiquitous use in the #dailycontext belies its #complexity. As constructions of #community or #nation, what constitutes the ‘we’? How does it come to be? #Placemaking, references to memory, history and iconography form part of the processes of identity formation. How is this determined and where are the fault lines? Through the works and projects by contemporary Singaporean practitioners – including #AngSongMing, #MichaelLee and #FrancisNg, Tan Pin Pin and #MingWong - WE invites us to consider the production and reproduction of #collectiveidentities and its related discourses such as place, culture and nation. Curated by #HemanChong and Ahmad Mashadi. (at NUS Museum)
