2. Artist Ho Tzu Nyen in First Mid-Career Survey Exhibition
Singapore Art Museum (SAM) unveils Ho Tzu Nyen: Time & the Tiger, a solo exhibition by the highly regarded Singaporean artist Ho Tzu Nyen. The showcase encompasses eight significant installations, including a newly commissioned piece titled T for Time. In a collaboration between SAM and Art Sonje Center (ASJC), this marks the first comprehensive survey of Ho’s artistic journey spanning the last two decades, primarily drawing from SAM’s extensive collection.
The exhibition’s title, “Time & the Tiger,” hints at the core inspirations behind Ho’s creations: the enthrallment with the historical journey of tigers across Asia. Spanning two million years, their narrative unfolds through glacial changes and rising sea levels, transforming them from freely roaming across Asia to teetering on the brink of extinction today. Tigers have held diverse significances, symbolizing power during Japan’s invasion of Southeast and East Asia and embodying weretigers in Malay lore as a connection between humans and ancestral memory. Essentially, tigers provide a lens to view time across various scales, from the geological alterations of the Asian continent to the cosmic connections of ancestral recollection.
Following its debut at SAM in Tanjong Pagar Distripark from 24 November 2023 to 3 March 2024, the exhibition is set to tour various global venues. General Admission (free for Singaporeans and PRs) applies for SAM at Tanjong Pagar Distripark.
