Memory’s Landscape: Works From the Steve Wong Art Collection
Memory, and the act of remembering, is never straightforward. It is both active and passive, straddling the spectrum between the vague and the clear. A memory recollected is born out of negotiations of what we choose to store or omit, reconstructing compositions of truths and half-truths. Yet memory itself is not a place. Landscapes therefore give memory an anchor — a foreground, a background, and everything in between — ranging from scenes of retraced certainty and clarity, to messy and muddled impressions.
GDP Architects and R+, supported by Aēsop, are delighted to present Memory’s Landscape: Works from the Steve Wong Art Collection. The curation and layout by R+, enhanced by an infusion of scents by Aēsop, set the spatial and sensorial tone for the space at GDP Campus. Through a selection of 20 artworks by 19 visual artists, the exhibition rekindles the familiar yet interconnected ties between memory and landscape — in others, and of our own.
