A housing block sits quietly on Banda Street in Chinatown, remarkably untouched by the redevelopment projects at its doorstep. A silent visitor arrives to explore its corridors and walkways – to observe, to compare, and to document the spaces she wandered through as a child.

In her attempt to make a record, and recall what is already absent, she anticipates the loss that is to come.

Perception3 is a Singapore-based interdisciplinary collaborative practice established in 2007 by Regina De Rozario and Seah Sze Yunn. We develop artistic encounters that invite audiences to reflect on the rapid transformation of our city spaces and the ways in which we remember and relate to these spaces. Our works are expressed through photography, digital video, text, site-specific and site‐responsive installations.

Regina de Rozario is a Singaporean artist, writer, and researcher whose work is centred on art in public space. She holds a PhD from Nanyang Technological University and teaches in the fine arts and curatorial practice degree programmes at the University of the Arts Singapore.

Seah Sze Yunn is a Singaporean interdisciplinary design practitioner. She holds an MA in Design, with Distinction, from Goldsmiths, and has contributed her design perspective to diverse fields such as non-profit arts management, visual arts, arts-based learning and development, and branding.
