What does loss feel like on your tongue?

 

As part of ‘The Embrace and the Passage’, join us for Ghost of Raspberry, a participatory performance by Michele Chu featuring sound artist Lam Yip and food designer Alison Tan, delving into grief, memory, and loss. Drawing from her immersive installation rocking cradles, wet blankets, Chu translates personal anecdotes and the materiality of her work into an embodied, multisensory experience. This journey blends ritual, food, sound, scent and environment to explore communal and gastronomic grief. 

Each 30-minute session (max. 6 participants) offers an intimate space for connection, reflection, and shared experience. The performances will be in English.

Fri, 6 Dec, 6:3010pm
Sat, 7 Dec, 4–9:30pm
Sun, 8 Dec, 4–9:30pm

On these dates, the exhibition will be open to the public from 12–3pm only.
