The celestial debris from the Oort Cloud belt will be reimagined as space jewellery fashioned out of organic and synthetic materials. Participants will tinker with these objects, combine them with basic circuitry and fashion them into wearable ornaments. This workshop, part of A Weekend with The Everyday Museum, extends from The Oort Cloud and the Blue Mountain: Edition Tanjong Pagar Distripark by Hazel Lim-Schlegel and Andreas Schlegel, commissioned by The Everyday Museum, a public art initiative by Singapore Art Museum, with the support of Mapletree Investments Pte Ltd.  About Andreas SchlegelAndreas Schlegel works across disciplines and creates objects, tools and interfaces where art and technology meet in a curious way. Many of the artist's works are collaborative and have been presented on screen, in code, as installation, workshop or performance. Schlegel's practice focuses on contemporary and open-source technologies, where outcomes are informed by computation, interaction and networked processes.About Chok Si XuanChok Si Xuan is an installation-based artist whose work focuses on material systems, viewing them as embodiments of connections or relationships, and attempts to mimic disrupting technologies through bodily gestures. She is curious about how culture, material, and form shape the way we understand each other, and her practice investigates cybernetics—the feedback between humans, living organisms, and machines—and the exploration of physical relationships through systems, in the Southeast Asian context.About Shaiful HardyShaiful 'Shif' Hardy is a designer who intends to fill the world with quirky and humorous designs. His practice lies in exploring different mediums and exaggerating them to their limits. His ideology stems from creating silly outcomes that provoke an audience, in turn creating awareness for a topic while having fun at the same time.Photography and Audio/Video RecordingPlease note that there may be photography and/or recording (audio and/or video) at the event.
