Multidisciplinary art collective Shaman Tearoom (led by artist Aiwei Foo and self-taught sound artist and experimental musician Kent Lee) delves into the state of stillness amidst the flux of change with Into Still Life. Seeking meaning in the quiet, everyday moments and objects that often go unnoticed, the performance serves as a reminder of mindful practice in daily life and culminates in a simple tea ceremony that gently underscores the themes of reflection and balance.

Oculus, Basement 2
Free admission
the centre trembles is a durational performance by butoh artist XUE sited within ArtScience Museum’s Oculus, the hollow core of the building’s architecture. This intervention creates a context in which participants can bear witness to rhythms of choice, change and stillness in relation to how one situates the body, or how the body inadvertently situates itself in space.

From 12 Apr
Created by filmmaker and artist duo Mark Chua and Lam Li Shuen, A Lotus Turns To Light is a 10-channel durational sound installation inspired by the cycles of lotus flowers, light and time. Composed as a textural soundscape for the annular space of ArtScience Museum’s Oculus, the work draws on the materiality of the lotus as well as themes of cycles and circularity to invite a flow of memory, feeling and simply being.
