Singapore Art Museum (SAM) presents Maria Taniguchi: Afterimage, the first monographic museum exhibition in Singapore by acclaimed Filipino artist Maria Taniguchi. 

Anchored by Taniguchi’s ongoing series of “brick paintings”—large-scale canvases composed through the repeated hand-painting of brick-like forms—the exhibition explores recurring themes in her practice including repetition, time, and labour. 

Afterimage brings together Taniguchi’s key works across painting, sculpture and moving image, offering an overview of her multidisciplinary practice. Alongside the “brick paintings,” the exhibition features a site-specific iteration of her Runaways sculptures and four video works produced between 2010–2026. From Java plum wood sculptures to video works examining memory and labour, the selection reveals the conceptual rigour and quiet intensity of one of Southeast Asia’s most significant contemporary artists. 

Presented following Taniguchi’s first survey exhibition at Museum of Contemporary Art and Design (MCAD) Manila, Afterimage invites audiences to encounter the materiality, scale, and rhythm through an intimate exhibition setting at their own pace.

Singapore Art Museum (SAM) 呈献 Maria Taniguchi: Afterimage

Singapore Art Museum (SAM) 呈献 Maria Taniguchi: Afterimage，这是备受国际赞誉的菲律宾艺术家 Maria Taniguchi 首次在新加坡举办的美术馆个展。

展览以 Maria Taniguchi 持续创作的 “brick paintings” 系列为核心——这些大型画布由艺术家以手工反复绘制如砖块般的图案构成，探讨其创作实践中反复出现的主题，包括重复、时间与劳动。

Afterimage 汇集了 Maria Taniguchi 横跨绘画、雕塑及动态影像的重要作品，全面呈现她的跨媒介艺术实践。除了 “brick paintings” 系列外，展览亦展出她专为展览场地创作的 Runaways 雕塑作品，以及四部于 2010 至 2026 年创作的录像作品。从以 Java plum 木材制作的雕塑，到探讨记忆与劳动的录像作品，这些精选作品展现了这位东南亚最重要的当代艺术家之一，在观念上的严谨思考，以及作品中内敛而深刻的艺术张力。

继 Museum of Contemporary Art and Design (MCAD) Manila 举办其首个回顾性展览后，Afterimage 来到 Singapore Art Museum (SAM) 展出，邀请观众在亲密的展览空间中，以自己的节奏细细感受作品的材质、尺度与节奏。
