Quora Fora: A Rehearsal, a performance, part of the Singapore Biennale 2019A new commission for the Singapore Biennale, Quora Fora is equally contemporary choral music, poetry reading and theatrical performance. Appealing to fans of new music, poetry, Singapore literature, performance art and theatre, Quora Fora is an intense, rapidly unfolding performance-installation that culminates in an open proposition to the audience. The artist and writer Jason Wee has been pursuing a practice that encompasses his interests in architecture, poetry, textiles, installation and the body. With his team of collaborators, including the composer Li-Chuan Chong and the architect Quck Zhong Yi of the design practice asolidplan, Jason Wee seeks to examine the notions and ideals in the quorum required for any democratic activation. Conceived as a total performance-installation, with Wee writing the libretto, producing the installation, and creating the choreography and costumes, Quora Fora: A Rehearsal seeks to ask, in Wee’s own words, “how do we design the shape and scale of a demos?” Drawing on the performers’ movements through space to unlock and activate considerations around the deliberative assembly, the work can be read as an ongoing search for a new symbolic form of democracy.IMPORTANT NOTE: this event timing has changed to 7:00 - 8:00pm.
