LOCATION: MARINA BAY SANDS SPECIFIC SITE: EMERGE PAVILION STUDIO: I AM NOT DAVID LEE BOOTH: EM20 Curatorial Brief “THESE PRECIOUS THINGS” Value /ˈvaljuː/ 1. the regard that something is held to deserve; the importance, worth, or usefulness of something. Who decides what is valuable? How do we prescribe or decide the value in something, be it a raw virgin material, a skill, knowledge, language, cultural identity, or an object – whether it be a measurable commercial value or sentimental value. The climate crisis looms ever present in each of our lives. Natural resources such as forests and mineral deposits are rapidly being depleted as virgin materials to satisfy our seeming insatiable desire for more. Landfill sites are overflowing. Oceans are so full of plastic we’re now ingesting it. We have more than enough stuff on the planet already, so why make more? Please use this as a provocation to respond to. What do you consider to be valuable? How is that expressed, displayed and communicated? How does that physically manifest into a newly made object for EMERGE 2024? CLICK HERE TO VISIT |
