The New Now III: Convergence

The third edition of The New Now series features 19 up-and-coming artists, most of whom are students and alumni of prominent art institutions across Southeast Asia. The artists were handpicked for their conceptual abilities and invited to respond to the exhibition's theme, drawn from the Japanese idiom ichi-go, ichi-e, which means 'one time, one meeting'. This idea of a fleeting moment in life is represented in every piece of art, created for the 'now' and never to be repeated.
