When physical spaces between one another close up, can we reopen a space for connection and comfort? Initiated in 2017, this second iteration of Something to Say looks at how the pandemic has lent new meaning to ways of listening in a world experiencing a global lockdown. In building a depository of conversations, the artist aspires to open spaces for confessions and open himself to conversations with friends and strangers, as they travel in time to negotiate into the near future and converse about personal aspirations and dreams.

Featuring
Wu Jun Han
Wu Jun Han is a visual art practitioner and experimental musician who lives and works from Singapore. His current practice uses installation, audio/visual improvisation, analogue tapes and synthesisers to mine the rich cultural resonances of obsolete technology. Jun organises Something To Say, an ongoing podcast that leverages the nature of private conversations as public utility, to collect narratives from members of the public as a means of mapping a vernacular landscape of Singapore. He was one of the featured artists for Fantasy Islands, which was part of the Singapore Art Week 2017, and most recently also presented a sound work for State of Motion 2018: Sejaraku.
