A passport summarises you in an instant. It opens up the world or damns you to bureaucratic hell. It affirms your identity or is just a booklet with benefits. A way out or a guarantee of a home to come back to.

What do passports mean to you? 

For 6 artists and their hosts, passports prompted conversations about identity, belonging, home, privilege and even love. Each artist worked with their hosts to create new artworks and experiences. Come see them in March through a series of pop-up experiences in different locations across the island.

What does it take to call another country one’s own? In choosing a passport, you reap its benefits but have to deal with its consequences too. Which nation do you pick? 

Artist Jimmy Ong and host Han Chung present a two-part encounter – a participatory experience that interrogates your birthrights, and a tableau encapsulating what it means to be placeless. Weigh the stakes at hand against the backdrop of the two men’s lives. 

This experience takes place both outdoors and indoors. Please bring an umbrella in case of inclement weather.
