The tours are an extension of her research process as part of her current project Spirits of Echoes, which maps the collective psyche of Singapore through the collection of personal narratives of hauntings, spirits and ghosts. Each tour is highly interactive. It begins with a sharing session around the tour’s theme and ends with participants contributing to a fictional map based on past and future representations of Singapore.Tours will not be didactic but will develop through a series of questions about your individual experiences of Singapore, of the films referenced and of the artworks on display. You should come prepared to meet new people and hear new stories about the island we share.--About ilaila is a visual and performance artist who works with found objects, moving images and live performance. She seeks to create alternative nodes of experience and entry points into the peripheries of the unspoken, the tacit and the silenced. With light as her medium of choice, ila weaves imagined narratives into existing realities. Using her body as a space of tension, negotiation and confrontation, ila creates work that generate discussions about gender, history and identity in relation to pressing contemporary issues.--About State of Motion 2019: A Fear of MonstersVisit our Facebook page for a full list of programmes happening during State of Motion 2019: A Fear of Monsters.State of Motion 2019: A Fear of Monsters investigates the histories and trajectories of Asian horror and focuses on the monsters at the intersections of art, popular culture and cinema.
