Critically acclaimed electronic duo .gif is back with a special new project – a experimental play-meets-live gig called Besides Ourselves as part of the ongoing M1 Singapore Fringe Festival. Weish, one half of the duo, informed us that it’s her debut as a playwright but equally exciting is the fact that .gif will be premiering material from their long-awaited second album (called Hail Nothing) during the play – Do. Not. Miss. Out. Get your tickets here.

Light to Night Festival 2020: Invisible Cities
image

Always a hit with the crowds, the Light to Night festival will be making over five of the Civic District’s most iconic institutions – National Gallery Singapore, Asian Civilisations Museum, The Arts House, Victoria Theatre & Victoria Concert Hall and the Esplanade. The organisers have enlisted a wide spectrum of artists and creatives to respond to the theme of Invisible Cities, which takes it name from Italian writer Italo Calvino’s seminal book of the same name. It’s best to check out each museum/institution’s website on what they’re offering for the festival; there are simply too many to list here. Pictured above: Floating City, an ethereal installation at the National Gallery Singapore by Singapore-based lighting company Nipek and interior design studio Knots. Details here.

We’ve all been there before, one way or another and this conversation between multidisciplinary artist Verkur, comedian Sharul Channa and beloved drag queen Becca D’Bus, aims to break down elitist stereotypes that have long encircled the art world.
