Episode 62: Dress and the Body in Three Recent Exhibitions We talk about two works relating to dress and the body by Hamkah Latib and Chok Si Xuan in the group exhibition 'only losers left alive (songs for lovers for the end of the world)' at Yeo Workshop. Nadya considers gaps in writing on Singapore photography in the 1960s that could be filled by looking at the body, in her presentation for the show 'Yip Cheong Fun: Common Interest' at Art Agenda @ 63 Spottiswoode. Similarly, Daniela reflects upon potential connections between dress and the body with Singapore history through the public lecture by Dr Loh Kah Seng on women working in factories in the same decade, in accompaniment to the showcase 'Modern Women of the Republic: Fashion and Change in China and Singapore' at Sun Yat Sen Nanyang Memorial Hall.
