This publication accompanies ‘In Studio: 51 Jalan Pemimpin’, a solo exhibition by Singapore artist Chen Sai Hua Kuan. It features artworks from his ongoing series, ‘In Studio’, which explores the artist studio as critical space and unique context for art-making. For the artist, past studios in cities such as Berlin, London and Oxford provided specific histories and social spaces that informed his practice. Curated by Wang Ruobing and presented as part of Singapore Art Week 2023, this exhibition includes artwork created out of readymade objects produced in Sai’s current studio at 51 Jalan Pemimpin. Embodying contradiction and irony, they showcase items that have been adapted into new configurations, casting new light on common materials.
