Dual City Sessions: Null (Singapore)

Conceived by Felix Ng (silnt), Dual City Sessions is a travelling exhibition focused on collaborations of two cities’ creative talents.

A platform for international cross-polination of diverse creative disciplines, bringing together emerging and innovative practitioners in the fields of art, fashion, music and design. For the first of it’s series, Felix invited Japanese experimental design collective, *null to collaborate with 14 Singapore designers.

Held in conjunction with the Singapore Design Festival 2007, each country’s team of artists will be working based on the themes of nature, architecture and other items symbolic of their country. Using only two elements in monochrome, the artworks are conceived, designed and constructed personally by each artist.

The participating Japanese and Singaporean artists – 28 in total – will each render their theories on two 8-metre-long original prints.  When connected together, the individual pieces become one artwork, inspired by and representative not only of Japanese beauty and culture but also of the connection between human and nature.
