All at Any Time (AR) | AR-BEIT series (2020) | Augmented Reality
14 Jan–31 Mar 2022
All day
National Gallery Singapore, along St Andrew's Road
The AR-BEIT (2020) series consists of four individual sculptures, in reference to works from Alicja Kwade’s oeuvre. Here, users can interact with and virtually place the works both indoors and outdoors. In All at Any Time AR, users are invited to drag hypothetical forms of the universe across the screen to fit them together like a jigsaw puzzle, referring to the idea of interacting parallel universes.
Alicja Kwade’s work investigates and questions the structures of our reality and society, while also reflecting on the perception of time in our everyday life. Her diverse practice is based around concepts of space, time, science and philosophy, and takes shape in sculptural objects, video and photography. In 2017, she participated in the 57th Venice Biennale Viva Arte Viva curated by Christine Macel and in the Aros Triennale The Garden – End of Times; Beginning of Times, #3 The Future in Aarhus. Her recent solo exhibitions include: Alicja Kwade: Between Glances at the MIT List Visual Arts Center, Cambridge (2019 and ParaPivot, The Roof Garden Commission at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York (2019)
