Hee Kerru:

Kerru is a multidisciplinary artist whose work questions established constructs, sparks discourse and represents marginalised perspectives. As an individual who is deaf, queer and Asian, she interrogates the taboos of a conservative Singaporean society via an aesthetics of maximalist subversion. She highlights socio-political issues traditionally glossed over by the privileged majority, seeking to spark discourse in pursuit of a more equitable future.

Currently, Kerru's art practice centres on feminism and embraces the subversive power of the feminine abject. Rebelling against the repression of the abject, her works bring the body back into signification in order to resist the patriarchal hegemony, turning sites of silence into spaces of discourse. Her art plays with text and language, investigating them as tools of both subjugation and resistance, and exposing how discourse affects the lived experiences of women worldwide through intertextuality.


John Leong:

John Leong (b. 1967, Malaysia) is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice explores the human condition, examining themes of identity, memory and consciousness through a range of materials and perspectives.

Through his art, John aims to produce thought-provoking works that challenge viewers and inspire new ways of seeing the world. In his pursuit for continuous learning John is currently pursuing his bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts at the LaSalle College of the Arts in Singapore (graduating in 2026).


Alecia Neo:

Alecia Neo (Singapore) is an artist and cultural worker. Her practice unfolds primarily through photography, video installations and participatory workshops that address modes of radical hospitality and care. Conceived during the Covid-19 Pandemic, her long-term research, Care Index, seeks to understand care through dialogue, movement and collaborative practices. The project builds on an earlier collaborative artwork titled, Between Earth and Sky (2018), which was developed with a group of caregivers in Singapore. Care Index has been recently presented at MMCA Seoul, La Trobe Art Institute, The Listening Biennial, Assembly for Permacircular Museums (ZKM, Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe), New Season of Care (Asia-Art-Activism) and Presence of Mind (Gallery Lane Cove, NSW, Australia).
She is the co-founder of Brack, an art collective and platform for socially engaged art and the Ubah Rumah Residency on Nikoi Island, Bintan, which focuses on the intersection of art, hospitality and ecology. Active since 2014, her ongoing collaborations with disabled individuals and communities manifest as an arts platform, Unseen Art Initiatives. Alecia has been an artist-in-residence at diverse art institutions such as NTCAM (Taiwan), Bamboo Curtain Studio (Taiwan), The Substation (Singapore), NTU CCA (Singapore) and UNIDEE in Biella, Italy. She is a member of the Green Art Lab Alliance (GALA) Asia and the co-curator of the third edition of The Listening Biennial in 2025.


Daphne Chua:

Daphne Chua is a Singapore-based somatic movement educator, therapist and facilitator, as well as the founder of Somatic Therapy Asia. Her practice spans seventeen years of clinical, facilitation and movement work, preceded by twelve years in media and communications. The convergence of these paths now informs her attention to how bodies are held, and shaped, by the systems around them.

She is the developer of Embodied Systems Intelligence (ESI), a philosophy of practice that resists the packaging of somatics into protocols and certifications. ESI holds together what conventional practice tends to split apart: physiology and psychology, science and philosophy, art and accessibility, the individual and the collective. Drawing on Body-Mind Centering®, nervous system literacy, developmental movement and relational somatics, her work approaches the body as a soma, a living sentience experienced from the inside rather than observed from without.

She also co-teaches Contact Improvisation at SAVH and has worked with visually impaired and differently-abled communities, where sensing beyond the visual is not an alternative channel but the ground itself. A commitment to decolonising wellness runs through her teaching, facilitation and advocacy.


Pauline Wong:

Pauline Wong (b. 1997, Singapore) is an artist trained in photography whose practice extends into installation, sculpture, ceramics, and performance. Inspired by social issues and everyday life, her work explores overlooked emotions and experiences through storytelling, observation, and introspection. Through her practice, Wong challenges societal norms and invites empathy, offering nuanced perspectives on the human experience.

Her works have garnered international recognition, been exhibited globally, and featured in The Straits Times Singapore and the *SCAPE comma campaign (bus stop poster). She has received several awards for her practice.
