The Art Picnic: An Act of Creation

INSTINC is bringing something fresh to Singapore Art Week 2026: a one-of-a-kind exhibition where the act of making becomes the show. We’re transforming our gallery into a lively, communal studio, inviting artists to create live in front of the public, share their process, and turn experimentation into performance.

Step inside a space where creation unfolds before your eyes. This exhibition invites you to witness the artistic process as it happens, celebrating experimentation, dialogue, and the energy of making. Finished works are only part of the story; here, the act of creation itself takes center stage and visitors are invited to be part of it.

Across five days, 35 artists from Singapore, Indonesia, Japan, Taiwan and beyond will work on site, bringing a mix of perspectives and practices to the gallery. Each day features six to seven artists working over five hours, offering a rare chance to observe, engage, and even contribute to the process. The experience is dynamic and unpredictable, reflecting the rhythms and energies of contemporary art in motion.

Live Creation Dates:
23 Jan 2026 (Fri), 4-9PM
24 Jan 2026 (Sat), 1-6PM
25 Jan 2026 (Sun), 1-6PM
30 Jan 2026 (Fri), 4-9PM
31 Jan 2026 (Sat), 1-6PM

Venue: INSTINC, 39 Keppel Rd, #03-10 Tanjong Pagar Distripark, Singapore 089065

When: 23 - 31 Jan 2026,
