Felt: Love, Remedies and Texture

Solo Exhibition

3 - 12 Aug 2024, 11am to 7pm

This exhibition looks at particular love languages that have been a part of the artist's family and by extension, many other Asian families. From cut fruits to sewing motifs and techniques and healing remedies within the home in the past, these rituals are introduced as a way to look at acts of love and care, as well as stories of resilience and hope. Curatorial advisor: Annie J. Kwan Interview: John Tung

About the Artist(s)

Adeline Kueh is a visual artist who makes installations and socially embodied works that reconsider the relationship we have with things and rituals around us. Using drawing as a conceptual tool, Adeline looks to cartographies, craft and oral tradition to map out the historical trajectories across time and space with her use of found objects and new productions. As a co-founder of the Critical Craft Collective (Singapore) and the pan-Borneo Serumpun Collective, the centrality of craft in contemporary practice as well as the politics of care are the core focus in her research practice. Presently a Senior Lecturer with the MA Fine Arts programme at LASALLE College of the Arts, Adeline has exhibited internationally. She was involved in the World Architecture Festival (2016-7), Hermes Singapore (2016), Venice Biennale (2019), and Singapore Tyler Print Institute’s Visiting Artists Programme (VAP) Residency (2021). In 2023, she was involved in NTU CCA IdeasFest 2023: Eat. Secure. Sustain, and Asia NOW Paris. In January 2024, Adeline was involved in The Fabulous Stories to Save the Green Planet, 2024 Cultural Olympics Exhibition Programme, Gangwon Cultural Heritage Exchange Exhibition, Gyeongpo Beach, South Korea. Adeline is also a 2024-2026 Ewha Global Fellow (EGF) with Ewha Womans University, South Korea.
