S.E.A. Focus is a leading showcase and art market hub dedicated to Southeast Asian contemporary art. It aims to bring together a fine curation of established and emerging artistic talents to foster a deeper appreciation of contemporary art and artists in the region.
As the anchor event of the Singapore Art Week, it offers an exciting and complementary blend of art experiences for collectors, artists, galleries and the public. The initiative celebrates the best of contemporary art in Southeast Asia and is led by STPI – Creative Workshop & Gallery, commissioned by the National Arts Council, Singapore.
With technology increasingly pervading our lives and blurring the lines between human and machine, S.E.A. Focus 2024 will explore the intriguing interplay between humanity and technology, as well as what gives distinctiveness to being human in the midst of an impending technological confluence.
Curated by John Tung for the first time, the showcase themed Serial and Massively Parallel will feature a curated assembly of artworks that reflect the fusion of Southeast Asian influences and digital advancements in the world today. Be prepared to experience more large-scale and off-the-wall artistic works in this edition!
