Two Planets | Love Loves Difficult Things: Tini Aliman, Zarina Muhammad

The Padang Sessions

This lecture performance by artists Zarina Muhammad and Tini Aliman draws from and unfolds from fragments from each of the auto-ethnographic aspects of Zarina and Tini's respective practice. The performance was presented as part visual conversation, part pragmatic prayer, part eulogy, part temporal installation that traverses the hiding places of love, grief and queer spirits, the soundscapes of trees as conduits, the inventories of intimacies, the necessary spaces of silence and the ways love loves difficult things.

Following this is a conversation between the artists, historian Chris Baker, economist Pasuk Phongpaichit and curator Adele Tan.

This performance lecture took place at National Gallery Singapore on 16 Oct 2022, as part of October Gathering.
