SAGER: Ties of Tenggara


SAGER: Ties of Tenggara is a group exhibition featuring the alumni of an art group exchange programme involving artists from several Asean countries. The programme was created to provide a platform for young artists to interact and build a regional art connection. Co-organised by HOM Art Trans and the National Visual Arts Gallery, this exhibition involves a number of young contemporary artists, namely, Azam Aris, Suddin Lappo, Ching Kim Chiew, Zelin Seah and Fadly Sabran from Malaysia; Choiruddin, Wisnuaji Putu, Iqro’ Ahmad, Andi Ramdani, Nugroho Heri Cahyono and Didik Wahyu Setiawan from Indonesia;  and Tristram Miravalles, Guenivere Decena, Mervin Pimentel, Carlo ‘Caloy’ Gernale, Christopher Zamora, Zean Cabangis, Amer Mira and Iggy Rodriguez from the Philippines.


During the period of this exhibition also these artists will participate in several side programmes, including Art Talk at local art institutions such as UiTM, Malaysian Institute of Art, Dasein Academy of Art, and One Academy; while some of them will take part in “Memories of Chow Kit”, a community-based project held in the vicinity of Chow Kit, and a collaborative project “Sama-sama”, co-organised by Tenggara artists and Kapallorek in Bandar Seri Iskandar, Perak.
