Taking the exhibition Crossings as both anchor and point of departure, this publication echoes and finds new ways to see the aspirations, anxieties and inquiries that coalesced around the project. More a literary reader than an exhibition guide, the text weaves between letters and essays, poetry and prose. It features interlocutors from the MOVE Workshop that was organised around the exhibition, as well as various other artists, curators and academics. Contributors include Julmar Carcedo, Dhwani Dholakia, Dr. Fang-Tze Hsu, Chrystal Ho, Dr. Olivier Krischer, Sze Ching Lam, Joshua Lim, Siddharta Perez, Wern Hao See, Li-Jen Tan, Lisabelle Tan, Wei Leng Tay, and Lawrence Ypil. The text is a conscious untangling and reconsideration of the discourses of migration through notions of movement, documentation, representation, temporality, and fragmentation.
