Singaporean social artist duo Hunny & Lummy, presents its multidisciplinary exhibition, ThisConnect: Threading Worlds, which aims to encourage masses to experience and converse their truths. The exhibition was first launched, in conjunction with Suicide Prevention Awareness Month in September 2020.

In Part 1, we unpack the different elements that lead to mental distress in Singapore, especially with Covid, internally and externally. 

I personally have been to the full exhibition at 1 Neil Road. The raw and honest documentations and audio-video artworks have touched, moved, and created greater awareness for people to re-examine fundamentally what it means to be a human being; from various dimensions of human connections and relationships, from oneself to other(s) to our natural world encapsulated via their participatory-instructional art coupled with conscious conversations, that shines through. 

One of the works, I Feel You portrays 2 complete strangers, holding hands, face to face, being vulnerable and connecting by sharing stories of their personal truths where pain, loss, angst, existential questions towards life emerges in a 20-minute conversation amongst pairs. While one speaks, the listening party holds the safe space and only replies with, “I Feel You”. 

Below are the dates and venues for the exhibition, all are open to public.
