Art Porters celebrates Mother’s Day this coming

Art Porters celebrates Mother’s Day this coming Sunday, 9 May 2021, also the last day of Chloë Manasseh’s ‘CASA’, concluding another successful exhibition by Chloë and Art Porters. ‘CASA’ is inspired by Chloë’s mother, Ruth, the heritage of Chloë’s maternal line, and by Ruth’s birthplace, Casablanca, Morocco.

Chloë plans to be in the gallery on 9 May 2021, from 3:30 pm to 7 pm. Come and meet her on the last day of her exhibition!

Registration is not required. However, due to the recent rise of COVID-19 cases in Singapore, please abide strictly to safe management measures, and in particular, stay at least one metre apart from visitors outside of your party (party size limited to five) and keep your masks on throughout. We seek your help and understanding, including waiting to enter the gallery till other visitors exit through our back door. Thank you so much, we look forward to seeing you, and staying safe together!

Art Porters is thrilled to announce “Licht, Lieb

Art Porters is thrilled to announce “Licht, Liebe, Leben”, 白䅠山 (Bettina Schleier)’s first solo exhibition in Singapore. “Licht, Liebe, Leben” translates to “Light, Love, Life” and is the signature of German philosopher Johann Gottfried Herder, whose humanistic approach to the natural sciences greatly inspires 白.

A core belief of the Singapore-based Austrian artist is that science is not separate from art. Aesthetics can be found in nature in the form of data, known and unknown to us. We are constantly searching for meaning and connections in our lives. Art can be a language of science that translates data around us.

白’s artworks combine electronics and sensors with organic, everyday materials found in South East Asia, inviting the audience to interact, measure and reveal the natural data around us. “Licht, Liebe, Leben” raises important questions: how can science and art unravel the mysteries of our universe? And thereafter change the way we derive meaning from nature and our environment?

Earth Day 2021 🌍 To commemorate this special

Earth Day 2021 🌍

To commemorate this special day of prioritising the greater protection of our planet, our world, and our home, Art Porters poses a question from a different perspective to everyone. Instead of asking the question of what we are doing to protect the world, let us take a different look within and ponder, what are WE doing to harm our world?

Sensitive questions as such did not stop Emmanuel Santos, a Filipino artist/photgrapher based in Melbourne, Australia, from asking them. This piece titled “Irisan” is a “visual commentary on the mismanagement of the environment. This photo was taken at Asia Road, Irisan, just outside Baguio City in Philippines. The location was a dumping site for the city’s garbage, including the villages in the outskirts of the city. The accumulation of garbage created a mountain of waste that posed as an environmental hazard to the neighbouring communities. Eventually as feared, a catastrophic event happened when a typhoon and prolonged days of rain caused the site to collapse into a landslide, burying houses beneath it and cutting off road access, further isolating the villages. This is an issue regarding waste management and questionable environmental health, which is widely prevalent in the nation. I feel that I needed to address this issue of social and environmental cancer.”

This work, along with two other works from Emmanuel Santos’s ‘Shadow Earth’ series, as well as his newest hand-coloured works derived from his ‘The Passing of Light’ series, will be showcasing in this year’s Art Fair Philippines. Do show your support to Emmanuel and his works that are unafraid of asking the tough questions!

The use of the colour blue by Chloë Manasseh is exclusive to this solo exhibition ‘CASA’. Blue is a colour that Manasseh associates with Morocco, taking inspiration from the vibrant blue hues painted on the walls of Chefchaoen and the Majorelle Garden in Marrakesh, Morocco. Though a darker take on the iconic Moroccan blue, it is a reflection of her personal feelings and associations to both the colour and the country, through individual and collective memory.

Come by the gallery to visit ‘CASA’ by Chloë Manasseh this week on Saturday! We will be closed on Good Friday and Easter Sunday. Other than that, we are open from 10:30 am - 7 pm daily, except for Mondays (by appointment only)

‘CASA’ by Chloë Manasseh opens today! Hurry down to catch Chloë in the gallery as well.

We will be open from 10:30 am - 7 pm, don’t miss out!
The exhibition will be on until 9 May 2021.

CASA is an exploration of Manasseh’s Sephardic r

CASA is an exploration of Manasseh’s Sephardic roots, reflecting on how one’s concept of home and identity shifts over time. The works delve into Jewish folklore, and such folklores, much like memories or landscapes, are imprecise and subject to change. Manasseh is interested in the imprecision of memory and the process by which imagination can intrude on physical space, influencing how people establish a connection to it, demonstrating how we inhabit space through visual identity.

Get excited because CASA opens tomorrow!! See you here!

Chloë Manasseh is a Singapore-based British Israe

Chloë Manasseh is a Singapore-based British Israeli artist born in 1990. Her work has been exhibited internationally with exhibitions in the USA, UK, Italy, Israel and Singapore. She has collaborated extensively with artists, musicians, clothing and interior designers on various projects around the world.

Working between painting, print, video and installation, her work sits between experience and imagination, considering the limits of representation in relation to the wholeness of experience. Exploring the fragility of vision and ideas of remixing reality, she reflects on the relationship between individual and collective memory, her identity within space and her forged identity within new spaces.

Join us this Saturday, 20 March, for the opening of her upcoming solo exhibition titled ‘CASA’, here in Art Porters Gallery. Registration is required and can be found in the link of our bio.

This March, ‘Arts In Your Neighbourhood’, an i

This March, ‘Arts In Your Neighbourhood’, an initiative by the National Arts Council, is held in the heartlands of Pasir Ris. We absolutely love Jamie Teo’s (@spaceintruder) art installations that are part of @thestoryofaplaceisinitsname ‘s visual arts walking trail! Travel to the east and discover Jamie Teo’s ‘Escapade’, situated at Blk 130 Pasir Ris Street 11 (sheltered walkway) and Coffee Express Kopitiam (Blk 443 Pasir Ris Drive 6), from 11 - 28 March 2021.

“Pasir Ris has always reminded me of a resort-like, getaway by the seas — a place to escape the city’s shiny skyscrapers and slow down our pace to enjoy a short jaunt. An area that seemed almost foreign from Singapore because of how far out it was and how long it took to get there. Spending weekends going for barbecues and staying over in chalets in friends and family was what I remembered vividly about the far east of Pasir Ris, countless connections and memories made along with a short but sweet escapade. To have no worries about our past or future and savour the joys of being present.

‘Escapade’ is a work that saturates and highlights the hues of teal and green inspired by the seaside neighbourhood and the lush greenery facade of Pasir Ris. The eye-catching colour work encourages one to slow down and pause to take some time out of our fast-paced routines, taking notice of the often overlooked colours and its relationship to our surroundings.” - Jamie Teo
