Engage in an evening with artist Susie Wong, as she explores the inter-subjective notion of romance through the 1960s cult film, The World of Suzie Wong, that tells the tired tale of a struggling American artist and the beautiful Chinese prostitute who captured his heart. Convinced that a romantic relationship is imbued with power codes—who takes care of whom, who surrenders, who conquers and how love is performed—Susie repeats and circulates these tropes through various media, as if to devour her audience in the sentiment.
Venue: Telok Ayer Arts Club, 2 McCallum Street, Singapore 069043
