| 説明 | Telok Blangah 2013Paint, varnish, glass bottles, decals and traditional wooden boat This work features a kolek Melaka (traditional fisherman's boat from Melaka) filled with a thousand glass bottles inscribed with messages from male prison inmates in Singapore. These messages describe the inmates' hopes and aspirations while serving their sentences and upon their release. Ahmad's work amplifies and connects the inmates' aspirations to the public with the kolek, a vessel which is rarely seen today and a reminder of the artist's ethnic roots. Ahmad is a Malaysian citizen, although he grew up and lives in Singapore, and a major thread in his practice addresses questions of land, identity and faith. The title Telok Blangah references the area where Malay royalty used to live in colonial Singapore, as well as the neckline pattern for the baju kurung ( traditional Malay men's attire). |
