For the third talk of their series, The Post Image Cluster is excited to welcome the Mumbai-born Singaporean artist and writer Shubigi Rao for a talk moderated by Chih-Chien Wang. Register via the link below to learn about Shubigi’s art and curatorial practice and how the global pandemic has impacted artists.
Artist and writer Shubigi Rao’s interests include libraries, archival systems, histories and lies, literature and violence, ecologies, and natural history. Her art, texts, films, and photographs look at current and historical flashpoints as perspectival shifts to examining contemporary crises of displacement, whether of people, languages, cultures, or knowledge bodies.
Her current decade-long project, Pulp: A Short Biography of the Banished Book is about the history of book destruction and the future of knowledge. The first Pulp volume was shortlisted in 2018, and in 2020 the second volume won the Singapore Literature Prize (Creative Non-fiction).
