Description
by various artists Myanmar
Curated by Zhuang Wubin Singapore This is an Esplanade Presents programme.
Myanmar has been the focus of media attention in recent years, as the country embarks tentatively in the reformation of her political and commercial arenas. At the same time, contemporary art has changed significantly since the onset of the millennium. The best Myanmar artists, like their peers elsewhere in the world, have been equally keen to tap onto the global artistic discourse without losing sight of the obvious changes taking place on the streets of Yangon.
This exhibition features different generations of Myanmar artists who approach the medium of photography in diverse ways. Some of the projects address the shifts in politics and contemporary art highlighted earlier, examining the tensions that they create on the ground. Others are more personal and deal with facets of life that are universal, like the loss of a loved one within the family.
