[SAM Art Dose] Care Index: Performing Normal
Join our artists as they navigate the museum and engage with different sites through the use of dialogue, physical gestures and movement.
This participatory performance challenges societal perceptions of normalcy by examining how disabled bodies and modes of communication are perceived, inviting participants to embrace new ways of connecting and understanding differences.
Participants will immerse themselves in a collaborative experience that seeks to shift existing ableist culture and reimagine possibilities for human connection.
This programme is an extension of a series of performance workshops that were presented at Singapore Art Museum and is presented in conjunction with the exhibition Lost & Found: Embodied Archive, which explores the intersection of contemporary art and social issues.. Performing Normal is part of Care Index, an ongoing artistic research project that seeks to understand care through movement and collaborative practices.
