Episode three

Beatrice Glow

“Going along this continued conversation that we have been having about archipelagic thinking, it dovetails well with diasporic thinking, relational thinking, empathetic thinking and that really helped me look at the map of Austronesia in a different layered way.”

This is the third in a series of conversations with artists-in-residence (AIR) linked by a wet wave of archipelagic consciousness at Yale-NUS College in Singapore. In this episode, host James Jack welcomes artist-in-residence Beatrice Glow to discuss her artistic work and creative research. In conversation with curator Sidd Perez, they discuss residency as “portal”, commemorations of Banda and empires of smoke.

Artist Quotes

“There is no no to know.”

“Sometimes I'm like water…working around questions, I manoeuvre around quite a lot with things…let's take material itself. I will not force the material to work against their will. I will use the material itself to understand it before I work with it.”
