Community & Education Residency || 01 Apr to 30 Sep 2026
Quek Jia Qi’s socially engaged practice bridges community and learning through storytelling. Working at the intersection of art and pedagogy, her collaborators come from diverse disciplines and all walks of life from a myriad of communities. Her practice materialises as site-specific installations, public programmes and performances with the aim of fostering connections and dialogue with her collaborators and the public.
While in residence, Jia Qi will interrogate models of knowledge exchange and circulation. Considering reciprocity as a catalyst for new artistic forms and cultural engagement, this interest is informed by the writings of bell hooks, while being driven by care and curiosity. Jia Qi envisions using her residency as a space for critical inquiry and collective imagining, where new ways of learning and being together can emerge.
