Skipping Stones promises a night of adventure and fun as we explore the latest that Singlit has to offer. Enjoy readings from the latest Singlit collections: a re-release of Wong May’s A Bad Girl’s Book of Animals, the New Singapore Poetries anthology and Nor’s body of work. Of course, there will also be open mic performances by various voices from around Singapore. Join us, too, in playing with the interpretation of poetry as we hear from two very different perspectives of the same text: the poet and the literature teacher.
Held in a private home in Long Island City, Queens, Second Saturdays (March) begins with a potluck, followed by the features Sati Mookherjee and Jim Pascual Agustin. RSVP Jee at jkoh@singaporeunbound.org for directions.
Following January’s subTEXT inspired by the seventh edition of the Singapore Biennale (SB2022) and (very loosely) its theme of “Natasha”, this edition of subTEXT in March marks the closing of SB2022 at Singapore Art Museum (the last day being March 19). In the face of fresh rhythms and reflections on inclusivity, we welcome three poets from the anthology New Singapore Poetries (Gaudy Boy, 2022) and one of the editors involved with Brown is Redacted: Reflecting on Race in Singapore (Ethos Books, 2022).
