EXHIBITIONS Daisuke Miyazaki, Tourists, 2017 SPECTERS AND TOURISTS 11 Nov - 17 Dec Free Level 3 ArtScience Museum is proud to co-organise with the Singapore International Film Festival a new film installation by Japanese filmmaker and artist Daisuke Miyazaki. Specters and Tourists is a two-part film installation that depicts urban life, and scenes from Singapore, as seen through the eyes of Daisuke Miyazaki. In the first part of the installation, Specters, Miyazaki weaves scenes from existing footage into a new multi-screen portrait of characters trapped like ghosts, or specters, in their everyday lives. In fragments we follow them, as they oscillate repeatedly between life and death, human and animal forms, and feelings of bland uniformity and seclusion. By contrast, in the accompanying installation, Tourists, two friends, played by Nina Endo and Sumire Sato, win a lottery ticket and travel abroad on a whim. Their adventures lead them to Singapore. Unexpected encounters in unfamiliar surroundings cause them to explore a new side of the city, and in the process discover a new side of themselves. This inaugural exhibition of Specters and Tourists is co-organised by ArtScience Museum and Singapore International Film Festival.
