Singapore Biennale 2022 named Natasha

Singapore Biennale 2022

A curious event unfolds when a name is given. Everything might seem the same, yet what it was is now different. A place transforms into home. A figure becomes familiar. The formless finds shape. It’s only a name, but with it a world comes into being. As it is spoken, it forges relations with what is around.

We have given the Singapore Biennale 2022 a name.

We’ve called it Natasha.
