An investigation of mountainous landscapes observed at various nature reserves in Singapore. Once a vital source of granite during the building boom in the 1970s, these mountains have since ceased they’re function and taken on a new identity.<\/p>\n

These \u201cMountains\u201d across Singapore stand as historic testaments and witnesses in the shifts of national agenda. Charting its transformation from material resource to man-made phenomenon; redirecting its surveyor\u2019s gaze from the urban reality to a temporary dream.<\/p>\n

This edition of The Mountain Survey<\/em> has been completely redesigned and revised to fit the artist’s intention, with the help of a designer.<\/p>\n

About A Different Reading<\/strong><\/p>\n

A Different Reading<\/a><\/strong> is a project by THEBOOKSHOW that\u00a0attempts to open up new dialogues and synergies between young creatives of varied background, training and knowledge through the process of creating a new artist book.\u00a0Bringing together 5 young artists and 4 young designers, under the mentorship of Hanson Ho of H55 and artist Ang Song Nian, each artist-designer pair produces a new art book that was launched at the Singapore Art Book Fair 2022.<\/p>\n

About THEBOOKSHOW<\/strong><\/p>\n

THEBOOKSHOW<\/a><\/strong> aims to become a mediator between the art world and the general public through the book medium. It acts as\u00a0an avenue for artists to showcase self-published art books\u00a0in exhibitions and art festivals in hopes to bring upon renewed perspectives of the medium. We believe very much in challenging the medium – moving away from its conventional form and exploring the vast possibilities the medium allows. In time, we seek to build a substantial database advocating that\u00a0the book form as an art in and of itself, harnessing this non-discriminatory medium to reach new audiences and connecting the arts community through exhibitions and activities centring the art book, establishing THEBOOKSHOW to be synonymous with the presentation of art books and working towards our eventual goal of building a thriving, all inclusive arts culture.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8424,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[179,411],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-7110","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-books","product_cat-titles-from-singapore","desktop-align-left","tablet-align-left","mobile-align-left","ast-product-gallery-layout-horizontal-slider","ast-product-tabs-layout-horizontal","first","instock","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nTHE MOUNTAIN SURVEY by Marvin Tang -
