Description
Yang Tidak Lupa (“The one who did not forget”) introduces a prep-room project initially exploring the multiple ways of tracing feminine identities in Malaya and Singapore’s art world, from the 1960s to the 1990s. It inquires further on methods of (re)reading the “feminine body” through their visual depictions and/or embodied realities, all deeply subjective and relational – while also holding space for future feminist interventions in Singapore’s histories of art. Yang Tidak Lupa is a prep-room project initiated by Nurul Kaiyisah, the NUS Museum’s inaugural Young Museum Professional Trainee (YMPT). prep-room Yang Tidak Lupa is the final stage of her YMPT journey that observes the interaction between her research interests and engagement with the Museum’s collections, as informed by her traineeship at the Museum.
