“Whisper of History” live artist talk @NUS Museum
“Some things are too sacred for images, other things are waiting to be imagined.”
In Conversation with James Jack
James Jack’s practice revolves around creating socially engaged art works. In this conversation, he traces his practice spanning works using dirt from the Cu Chi tunnels, to social activism in Okinawa, focusing on how soil can tell us stories, and his research around the erasure and resilience of microhistories. A live Q&A with Jack will follow the conversation.
