Panel Discussion (Fluidity): MAN, Ina Conradi and Mark Chavez, in conjunction with the exhibition SG:IO Tokyo Event Name: Singapore Inside Out: Tokyo 2017 (SGIO Tokyo), organized by The Singapore Tourism Board (STB), Bank Gallery Omotesando, Tokyo, Japan

About

Singapore: Inside Out is an international and experimental showcase that recognises Singapore’s top creative talents from a spectrum of disciplines. The Theme of the Tokyo Edition is HyperCity, which features artists from Singapore and Japan in dialogue, exploring various cultural phenomena in search of what it means to live in a metropolitan city. Known as two of the world’s most technologically advanced places, or “hyper cities”, Singapore and Tokyo share commonalities such as futuristic architecture, vertical gardens, and digital screens. Natural and digital worlds merge and generate new realities, where nothing is constant and everything moves at the same time. Each micro-world is both vast and contained, dynamically transforming the human experience at an unprecedented pace. Amid this state of flux, how do the temporary and permanent inhabitants of these new worlds define their own experiences? The three chapters of this exhibition chart the journey of the visitor from first impressions (arrival) to urban phenomena (encounters) to cultural influences (departure) that inspire new modes of expression.
