For an M+, Museum of Visual Culture and Art Basel commission, Ho Tzu Nyen turned to AI to animate a love letter to Hong Kong cinema. The artistic director of the Gwangju Biennale 2026 (재단법인 광주비엔날레 Gwangju Biennale Foundation) has plenty of thoughts brewing. This time, he got ChatGPT to express it for him. The result is an unexpectedly candid portrait of Ho’s inner world.

Food for thought: during Eko Nugroho’s (Eko Nugroho) 2025 residency, a meal at J.B. Ah Meng Restaurant with the STPI team inspired one of his works, featuring the restaurant’s chilli crab.

Now, he’s back for round two, sharing the table with our Senior Printer, Chong Li Sze, as they revisit the people, places and dishes that have shaped his time and work with STPI.

Eko Nugroho: STRANGE MONSTER VIEW is showing through 10 October. Plan your visit.

Do Ho Suh (Do Ho Suh) wore down his fingerprints rubbing the walls of a house he had to vacate, inscribing himself into the work as one final act of farewell.​
​
Suh works in weightless fabric and layered paper, immortalising the places he has lived in into translucent, moveable forms and imprints. Every mark is a memory caught between preservation and departure. ​

Masks have been around for around 9,000 years—in ceremony, combat, theatre. You might even be wearing one right now, metaphorically. 

Eko Nugroho (Eko Nugroho) uses them to unmask what we have never stopped doing: concealing, performing and adopting identities that aren’t our own.

Eko Nugroho: STRANGE MONSTER VIEW is on view till 10 October. Plan your visit.

Having worked with STPI for nearly two decades, Do Ho Suh () has been one of our longest-standing collaborators. His first retrospective at the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea (MMCA) brings together over 500 works, including his gelatin thread drawings and the Rubbing/Loving series, where STPI itself becomes both subject and surface.

On the occasion of the Opening Day, our Executive Director Emi Eu spoke on how art came into being. The conversation continues in the studio, where our print and papermakers will lead classes inspired by the techniques central to Suh’s practice in the coming days.

Follow our Stories for updates on our MMCA journey. Do Ho Suh at MMCA () runs until February 2027.

Eko Nugroho (Eko Nugroho) embraced the freedom of expression that emerged in Indonesia’s post-Reformasi era of the late 1990s, developing a creative language unmistakably his own. In that period, comic books, pop art and street culture poured into Indonesia—influences that continue to shape his work today.

Beneath his larger-than-life characters lies socio-political commentary, and among them, iconic masked figures that speak to disguise, conformity and the need to escape it.
His latest body of work, made during his second residency at STPI, brings his world to Singapore.

Eko Nugroho: STRANGE MONSTER VIEW opens 22 Aug and runs through 10 Oct. Join us on Opening Day for a special talk with independent curator John Tung (John Savage).

Few knew Zarina this way.
She adored talking to museum guards and gallery receptionists, and remembered all their names. She also loved indulging in chocolate ice cream at night.

Curator and Zarina’s former studio manager, Sarah Burney (Sarah Burney), reflects on the artist in a memorial poem, in the way she knows best—through her own words.
Walk through the exhibition one last time with Sarah, alongside an excerpt of her poem.
