If the super-packed calendar of Singapore Art Week has left you with art fatigue, you can take your time in exploring certain shows. For example, the always-popular Light to Night festival has been extended to February 3 – which means more time to check out the many works dotted all around the Civic District. More shows and details below.

CHECK OUT AN EXHIBITION IN A TENT

For the uninitiated, Robin is a series of mini-art shows held in a camping tent. Founded by three emerging artists Ryan Lim Zi Yi, Lai Yu Tong and Kwok Jia Yang, the trio are long time friends who are into camping, hence the experimental idea to hold shows in a tent.

Those who like guerilla-style experiences would be glad to know that Robin is held in monthly instalments, each time only for a weekend and in a different location. There are five planned for now and this is the third edition, titled In The End, There Was Fish For Dinner. It features works by artists Tae Parvit, Jeremy Sharma and Tricia Lim.

The show is open to visitors literally all night (as a nod to how one stays overnight in a location when camping). You can even watch short films and video works by various artists on a “small picnic mat in an imaginary beach” – just remember to register here.

January 29, 3pm to January 30, 6pm, at Gillman Barracks, #01-05 Blk 38 Malan Rd

CATCH A SHOW DEDICATED TO NEXT-GEN ART STARS

If you’ve yet to visit the buzzy independent art space Starch, here’s a good reason to head down: the space is currently hosting the works by the latest winners (artists Victoria Hertel and Danial Shafiq) of the Chan Davies Art Prize, an initiative launched by the eponymous gallery for Lasalle College of The Arts’ final-year fine arts students in both the BA and MA programmes.

The show, titled syn-, is curated by veteran artist Jeremy Sharma and sees both artists presenting works that respond to the site and architecture of Starch. Hertel for example has created a poetic installation piece titled Drop (pictured) that sees a vessel moving randomly, and which releases drops of water, momentarily marking the floor, only to gradually evaporate and disappear again.

On now till January 30, at #02-11 Tag A building, 81 Tagore Lane

EXPLORE ALL THAT LIGHT TO NIGHT FESTIVAL HAS TO OFFER

For the first time, the popular Light to Night festival has now been expanded to take place over three weeks, which leaves those who like to procrastinate more time to check out the offerings by many of the participating institutions around the Civic District area.

There are works all around the area – partners include the National Gallery Singapore, Asian Civilisations Museum (ACM), Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay, The Arts House, Victoria Theatre & Concert Hall, and new collaborators National Library Board, Capitol Singapore and shopping mall Funan.

The ACM, for one, has various works that tell various stories of the adjacent Singapore River. Pictured above is a multi-media sensory experience As The River Flows by composer Chong Li-Chuan and multi-disciplinary artist Casey Chen.

There’s also a market held at ACM this weekend (from 6:30pm to 9pm) that’s a throwback to Singapore’s history as a trading port. At this particular market, you don’t pay for things – you barter (just remember to bring along an item of your own to do so).

On now till February 3, at various locations
