ABOUT RESONATES WITH RESIDENCY
The Resonates With Residency is a three-month programme that invites local artists to respond to works and themes from the Gallery’s long-term and special exhibitions.
Each Resident Artist will explore a theme—inspired by an ongoing exhibition—through a series of performances, public workshops and online content. With interdisciplinary, intercultural and international collaboration at its core, the Resonates With Residency aims to establish deep and meaningful connections between artists, audiences and art from Singapore and the region.

TACTILITY STUDIES: WHERE OUR LOST THINGS LIVE CHONG GUA KHEE & BERNICE LEE FEATURING SATHECOLLECTIVE & BIB MOCKRAM
9–11 Sep | Time TBC | Glass Room Take a deep breath and enter an alternate world where our Lost Things live: that one missing sock, that umbrella you just can’t find, the “chouchous” or bantal busuks that got thrown away without your knowledge. These are things that we didn’t get to say a proper goodbye to—and here is our chance! In this work, we invite young families to journey with us and meet various Lost Things. How might we trace their stories by listening to the sounds they make, or exploring the way they feel and move? After the Lost Things have each had their chance to share their tale, we’ll have a little parade to celebrate the time we had together, and then it’s time for us to say our goodbyes. This programme is held in conjunction with Gallery Children's Biennale.
