4 JUN – 28 AUG 2016 | Featuring commissioned artworks, artist loans and works from the Singapore Art Museum collection,Odyssey: Navigating Nameless Seas invites visitors into Earth’s watery realms, as seen through the eyes of contemporary artists.Through the centuries, over numerous expeditions, and with ever-increasing sophistication in science and technology, humankind has sailed the seven seas and plunged into the very depths of oceanic trenches. Yet there remains much to be discovered of this alien world.
Odyssey: Navigating Nameless Seas is where artists delve into the unfathomable depths of the ocean’s mysteries, and also think through the tempests that batter our sails on this journey through life. Riddled with twists and turns, where will our explorations take us? While we seem to know more and more about the world around us, to what extent does it give us insights into human nature? To what ends our endless discoveries?
Odyssey: Navigating Nameless Seas is running from 4 June to 28 August 2016 at Singapore Art Museum. Admission is $10 (adults), $5 (students and senior citizens), and free for children under six. Singaporeans and PRs enjoy free admission to SAM every Friday from 6pm to 9pm.
