The selected residents include 23 independent practitioners and 2 artist duos from around the world, carefully selected from over 1000 applications across 107 countries during the open call launched in May 2022.
Selected applicants have been offered a studio-based residency across three of four types: Artist, Community & Education, and Curatorial & Research. The fourth residency type, EX-SITU, which hosts independent art organisations, artist-run spaces, early-stage museum projects and community-led initiatives, is exclusively by invitation.
One of Asia's most comprehensive interdisciplinary residency programmes, SAM Residencies aims to provide platforms for artistic experimentation and expression. Taking place at SAM's Tanjong Pagar Distripark industrial warehouse turned art space, residents will meet and work against the backdrop of the iconic Tanjong Pagar Port. The programme is a platform for residents to engage in active dialogue, collaborations and co-creation between residents, audiences, and the art community. Each residency will span one to six months and run until December 2024.
Cycle 2 focuses on themes of postindustrialism, critical alliances, and the possibilities of a transformed future—broadly confronting burgeoning questions on recent capitalism, ground-up initiatives concerning mutual aid and thinking through perspectives on our collective futures.
The residents were juried by an international panel comprising Isabella Rjeille (Curator at Museu de Arte de São Paulo Assis Chateaubriand, São Paulo), Ade Darmawan (artist, curator and member of ruangrupa, Jakarta), Tan Pin Pin (filmmaker and artist, Singapore), and Patrick Flores (Deputy Director, Curatorial & Research at National Gallery Singapore). The panel was chaired by Shabbir Hussain Mustafa (Senior Curator and Deputy Director, Residencies at SAM and National Gallery Singapore).
