soltu is Elden Zachery’s debut show seeking to understand and grasp the idea of being free (‘soltu’, in Kristang). Shaped by cowboy bravado, wandering nomads and the romance of Kristang folklore, this body of work features the wielding strengths of Elden’s artistic universe and storytelling. A vivid fashion and art experience where Elden’s dabblings in movement, writing and sound are married to the fashion work that they have been trained in. Stories told are funnelled through narrative displays of passion through weekly Saturday shows — litterfall; mangrove of echoes; hadal birds; seabed nomad thanks you for your company — with guest performers aiding in breathing life into the space.
