Light to Night 2023: Here and Now

Light to Night 2023 embraces the theme of 'Here and Now' and explores what it really means to be in the present. Inspired by the process of responding to one’s time and environment through art, the festival invites visitors to reflect on contemporary topics through newly commissioned works by local and international artists in the Civic District.

With a series of multidisciplinary programmes, the festival is an opportunity for spontaneous and ephemeral encounters with art, as well as moments of contemplation on the world and who we are now.


Artists: Dawn Ng, Access Path Productions & RJ Thomson, Sai, Atelier Sisu, Studio McGuire, Han Sai Por x Flex Chew, Lolay x KABORED, Budi Agung Kuswara x Studio Batu, Ari Dykier, Felix Frank, NYP SDM (Experimental Image Making).
