IT IS OUR HONOUR TO PRESENT TO YOU, 40 EVERYDAY OBJECTS BY 40 SINGAPORE ARTISTS AND DESIGNERS. MADE FOR SAM, EACH IS A WORK OF ART AND WILL TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY. OWN THEM BEFORE THEY GO!
The Singapore Art Museum (SAM) has set a new direction for itself aimed at breathing new life into the museum, building relationships with living contemporary artists and developing SAM as a contemporary arts hub in the region. In line with this new focus and to collaborate more with the artistic and creative community, rather than source for ‘pre -designed souvenirs ’ from the region, SAM has called on local artists and designers across varied disciplines to participate in the creative production of a critical and compelling range of products. Through an intended framework, this undertaking plans to create a platform that links creatives with producers by formulating design briefs from the perspective of product pragmatics and limitations of manufacture, whilst allowing ample opportunities for imaginative interpretation.
Each designer or artist has been approached to conceive an idea for a specific product based on their area of enlightenment. Each product type has been engaged by individuals from diverse fields. The project has culminated in an exhibition at the Singapore Art Museum, showcasing the works of local creatives in the fields of product design, graphic design, fashion design, architecture and art through the manifold interpretations of each product in the museum ’s product range.
