SINGAPORE, Nov. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — The seventh edition of Singapore Biennale 2022 (SB2022) named Natasha has officially opened to the public. Organised by the Singapore Art Museum (SAM) and commissioned by the National Arts Council, Singapore (NAC), audiences can embark on a journey with Natasha and its artists and collaborators, and re-discover different perspectives of viewing and relating to the world.

Spanning various spaces on Levels 1, 3 and 5 of Tanjong Pagar Distripark, the homeground of SAM plays host to an exciting and diverse selection of works of artists from Singapore, Southeast Asia, the Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, Europe, and the Americas. Artists from the Middle East include Sarah Abu-Abdallah (Saudi Arabia), Malaeb (Jordan), Raed Ibrahim (Jordan), Doa Aly (Egypt), Firas Shehadeh (Jordan), Ali Yass (Iraq), Assem Hendawi (Egypt), Afifa Aleiby (Iraq / the Netherlands) and Samia Halaby (Palestine/USA).

Conceived as exploratory spaces for audiences to wander, rest and converse, SB2022 takes place in a variety of venues beyond Tanjong Pagar Distripark and traditional gallery settings. Everyday spaces like regional libraries, Yan Kit Playfield, International Plaza and the iconic Singapore Flyer are some of the multiple locations visitors to the Biennale can experience art.

Additionally, No. 22 Orchard Road, part of the Temasek Shophouse extension, will open from December 2022. Audiences can look forward to experiencing Natasha at this location through artistic practices that put the artists’ local communities at the core of the project, and works which invite more personal encounters.

Natasha takes audiences past Singapore’s coastline to the Southern Islands with the support of the Sentosa Development Corporation and the Singapore Land Authority. These islands provide a space for reflection, imagination, and projection while serving as a potent site for art, artists, and the public to gather in lived encounters. Audiences can encounter six artistic projects that engage with our relationship to nature, social practices and myths.

The main event for SB2022 will run from 16 October 2022 to 19 March 2023. More information on ticketing can be found on SB2022’s website (https://www.singaporebiennale.org/).

TOKYO, Nov. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — At the COP27 UN Climate Change Conference in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt, the Soka Gakkai International (SGI) has promoted youth participation and reforestation and amplified the call for climate justice expressed by faith leaders.

Alexandra Masako Goossens-Ishii, SGI representative to the UN, comments, “Although the loss and damage due to climate change is finally higher on the agenda, deep divisions remain on how to address them. I believe faith communities have a unique moral voice in calling on world leaders to take the decisions needed to move to a just transition for all humanity, while also embodying a resilient spirit, providing community support and moving towards a just transition at the local level.”

To counter youth tokenism, Lucy Plummer of SGI-UK led a November 15 side event that modeled genuine participation and showcased the voices of faith-based youth who are speaking out about climate-related suffering and leading action by faith groups. David N. Munene of co-organizer CYNESA (Catholic Youth Network for Environmental Sustainability in Africa) stressed that young people of faith can contribute most when they act in solidarity with others, and participants emphasized that the world needs the idealism and positive vision of youth.

On the same day, SGI cosponsored a workshop on REDD+, which aims to reduce emissions from deforestation and conserve forests, together with the International Tropical Timber Organization (ITTO). Cecile Ndjebet of REFACOF, the local partner in a joint Soka Gakkai and ITTO project that supports reforestation efforts by rural women in Togo, highlighted the crucial role of women at the grassroots throughout Africa.

Soka Gakkai members around the world are taking action, convinced that even in the face of the insurmountable odds presented by the climate crisis, every individual’s contribution can lead to positive change. As SGI President Daisaku Ikeda has stated, “When youth stand up in solidarity, confident that they can determine the future, this fresh awareness and momentum will surely become the driving force toward a brighter future.”

The Soka Gakkai is a global community-based Buddhist organization promoting peace, culture and education with 12 million members around the world. The SGI is an NGO in consultative status with the UN ECOSOC since 1983.
