Stealing Public Space
11 January - 23 February 2020 The Substation Singapore
This showcase features 32 historical and newly-commissioned works by 25 artists and will occupy several sites within and around The Substation. One highlight is the entry by Thai artist Sutee Kunavichayanont titled ‘History Class’. First installed at the foot of Bangkok’s Democracy Monument in 2000, the carvings take inspiration from various Thai tales excluded from official history books and aims to encourage viewers to reclaim taboo topics from the nation’s past.
