Asia's Ext.Asi Archive (2022), as part of Singapore Biennale 2022 named Natasha. Image courtesy of Singapore Art Museum.
Focusing on the theme of discovery by re-visiting, re-reading, and re-developing two previous online festivals,1 Ext.Asi Archive aims to create a sustainable ecosystem of communities between Indonesia and Singapore by experimenting with live virtual performances and modes of hybrid collaborations. This project is a continuation of Impssblprjct: Affirming the Crisis, organised by the Cemeti Institute for Art and Society in 2021.
Extended Asia is a platform run by four artists (Andang Kelana, Aditya F.H., Theo Nugraha, and Nissal Nur Afryansah) who work remotely via internet connection. In the form of an online terminal that can be accessed on their website, this platform brings together audio-visual artists from various regions in Asia to expand collaboration across genres. Emerging out of the current digital-internet era, the platform is organised to become a discursive site, artistic channel, and practicable space relevant for the sustainability of artistic practice and presentation.
