As part of The Substation's Associate Artist Showcase, a series of tours of the ongoing online exhibition will be conducted via live videos on our Facebook page in July 2020. The first tour is 19 July at 11.59pm by Lai Yu Tong.
Lai Yu Tong is a Singaporean artist who works primarily with images. He makes works about the things he sees, things he eats, things he buys, things he throws away, and other things. His practice currently looks at habits of consumption whilst living in a city.
ABOUT ASSOCIATE ARTIST PROGRAMME
The Substation's Associate Artist Programme (AAP) is a year-long programme where artists and collectives are invited to engage in a process-driven development of existing or new works. This year's selection is based on artists who engage in collaborative and collective practices, with many of them being active organisers and key members in their community.
The showcase takes the form of a virtual exhibition, offering snapshots of the ideas and projects that our Associate Artists are exploring or developing at present. Their work and methodologies highlight the different approaches to artistic practice.
