Stories that We Imagine, Stories that Connect Us

with Lizza May David, Fumiko Kikuchi, Thaís Omine, Kyong Ju Park, curated by Kathy-Ann Tan

Maya Angelou said, “There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.” The group exhibition “Stories we imagine, stories that connect us” invites us to reflect together on how stories of care and community are created, re-told and passed on amidst the ongoing realities of political conflict, social violence and polarization. How does the history of marginalization and “otherness” affect the ways in which we perceive ourselves (or not) as part of the society in which we live? How can we uncover the layers of oral and visual narratives and texts to convey stories that would otherwise be 'lost' to future generations? How can we make visible the embodied knowledge that we can share and pass on to future generations? How can we make structures of oppression and discrimination visible, not to re-center them, but to hold them accountable and embark on a path of individual and collective healing? The four artists use various multimedia works to address these questions, opening up a space for discussion, reflection and exchange.
