Symphony of Order

Symphony of Order explores the intricate interplay of "order" and "unspoken laws" within social settings. The installation depicts 12 characters from different ethnicities and era, gathered at a family meal. As the potential narrative unfolds, voices and actions of individual characters are overlaid to reflect the subtleties of power dynamics, cultural etiquette, and unspoken hierarchies within a family.

Taking reference from materials stored within the Rotunda Library & Archive in Singapore, the artwork presents a textual collage of found dialogue, scripted with the help of generative AI. Currently housing artists’ primary resources such as letters, writings, interviews, recordings of performances, sketches and drawings, the Rotunda Library is located in the heart of the former Supreme Court, where the legal reference library was once located.
