ThrowBack YMOI

A THROWBACK to the “Your Memories, Our Identity” (YMOI) in 2018.

YMOI is a collaborative site-specific project. It consists of three distinctive presentations by three different groups of artists, including photo exhibition titled “Silent Witness”, a documentary installation called “The Fading Hands”, and a full-length contemporary dance performance known as “Shǒu”. The piece was successfully presented and well-received on Butterworth Fringe Festival 2018.

This project was co-produced by Butterworth Fringe Festival 2018 and supported by Think City Sdn. Bhd., INXO Arts Fund, MyDance Alliance & private fund AuntArt (NL); residency supporters included Hin Bus Depot, Zart, Rimbun Dahan, Casa Ninda, Bilqis Hijjas, Carbon Art Space, C-Section, and Cheong Fatt Sze.

And finally, this project would not be made possible without the courtesy and hospitality of these respected artisans in Butterworth:

Mr Leong Yu Hin & family, Mr Sim Ah Ba & family, Mr Chong Kean Soon & family, Mdm. Leong Swee Hium, Mr Lim Teng Feng & family, Mr V. Visualingam A/L Vai Thilingam.

Our heartiest gratitude to each and every party who had been a part of the project.

We look forward to embarking another journey of exploration and progress in the near future. Stay tuned to the latest news and information.
