An uncanny assortment of miscellaneous objects is an international artists exchange exhibition initiated by independent curators Nien-Ting Chen (Taiwan) and Jaxton Su (Singapore), bringing an assortment of random objects to the fore, in an attempt to discuss the imperative of current issues with the peculiarity of specific commodities. In light of the ubiquity of objects as multi-faceted constituents of culture, ten groups of young artists were invited to create new works based on chosen objects from their everyday life, with the aim to utilise cross-cultural observation and examination of perspectives to construct a flourishing and experimental contemporary art platform between Singapore and Taiwan.
Presenting recent works from Desiree Tham, Huang Shao-Ying, Hsieh Yu-Cheng, Kevin Fee, Ryan Benjamin Lee, Shih Meng-Hsin, Tang Ya-Wen, Wilfred Lim and Ye Sian-Jie, the project is supported by the Department of Cultural Affairs, Taipei City Government; Taiwan National Culture and Arts Foundation; National Arts Council, Singapore; VT ArtSalon; and Starch.
