Synopsis

National Gallery Singapore presents Temple by Tuan Andrew Nguyen, a multi-sensorial installation which fuses personal memory and material histories of the American war in Vietnam. Featuring percussive instruments crafted from defused unexploded ordnance (UXO) carefully removed from the landscape of Quảng Trị in central Vietnam, the installation invites visitors to strike the suspended shells, gongs, and chimes to generate a meditative soundscape.

Temple is the Gallery’s first rooftop installation to integrate participative motion and sound. When struck, the percussive elements produce carefully tuned frequencies designed to complement one another.

An interactive performance that brings the installation to life, merging art and history through sound. Intuitively responding to elements within the space including engaging bells cast from disarmed bombshells and plate bells shaped from unexploded ordnance, experience how these resonant materials evoke remembrance while opening new artistic possibilities. Discover how atmospheric sounds, wind-activated chimes and spontaneous musical gestures can transform the sculpture into a dynamic, living instrument, inviting contemplation and healing.
