KERRU

Who knew snacks from our childhood could evoke such emotions about women’s rights? In our December 2024 Food edition, we speak to 20-year-old artist @kerrschy about using the likes of reconstructed Yan Yan biscuits to create works that reflect on the expectations and social constructs society has of women. #FoodArt #FoodPhotography #ContemporaryArtist #ConceptualArt #Feminism #CreativeCommunity #FEMALEMag #FEMALESingapore

Our next artist for Ziggie x Middle Child ✨🌈 Kerru's works navigate complex socio-political concepts alongside deeply personal explorations of the self. As someone who is deaf, queer and Asian, she interrogates the taboos of conservative Singaporean society via an aesthetics of maximalist subversion, bringing to light issues traditionally glossed over by the privileged majority, seeking to spark discourse in pursuit of a more equitable future. Here's some of what's on her mind: “I’m pursuing a BA Fine Arts at Lasalle, after which I hope to pursue a Master's! If all goes well and I have the time (and money), I hope to get a PhD as well, since I have quite a vested interest in the art theory side of things! One day at a time! I think it’s good to have a space where art is appreciated in Singapore and brought to the public eye, instead of rarified galleries with high barriers to entry." Join us for our collab launch to buy her works and hear her sharing at 2.30pm 🍾🥂 24th November 12-7pm Middle Child Wine Bar, 200 Middle Road 👉 RSVP link in our bio and here: https://lu.ma/u3okff77
