Residencies Studio Sessions: Mapping a glacier and the world wars, Artist talk by Baptist Coelho (India)

Since 1984, India and Pakistan have been guarding their territories on the Siachen Glacier claiming sovereignty over this remote zone in the Himalayas with temperatures as low as -60°C. Over the years, Baptist Coelho’s research on this glacial conflict have come to encompass manifold aspects such as the day-to-day life of soldiers and Ladakhi porters. The presentation will also touch upon the artist’s ongoing research in India’s involvement with and contribution to the two world wars through a selection of artworks that probe beyond the surface to complicate, counter, and rethink histories. In conclusion, Coelho will share his recent findings on the Rani of Jhansi Regiment and the Indian National Army (INA), two military units established in Singapore during the second world war.

The talk will take place in the artist’s studio.

Venue: NTU CCA Singapore, Block 38 Malan Road, #01-05, Gillman Barracks

When: 26 Nov 2019, 7pm - 8.30pm

By: NTU Centre for Contemporary Art Singapore (NTU CCA Singapore)
