From 26 Mar to 25 Apr 2021, The Arts House will present the fourth edition of Textures, an annual literary festival that celebrates Singapore literature (Sing Lit) and its diverse community. Textures will take on the form of a mobile installation and travelling library this year. The Bottled City installation will start off at The Arts House and move on to the heartland communities of Jurong, Yishun and Toa Payoh. Visitors are invited to discover and learn more about the scenes and landscapes that populate our Singapore Literatures through books, miniatures, papercut sculptures, terrariums and cross stitch.
“The mobile presentation format for Textures 2021, our annual programme spotlighting Singapore literature is a new way through which Arts House Limited has tried to rise to the challenge during these challenging times, taking work out of the confines of The Arts House, to the heartland HDB estates to help our local writers find new readers and advocates”, says Arts House Limited Executive Director Tan Boon Hui.
