Geometria Situ: Traces and the Poetics of Translation delves into the speculative ecologies of the everyday and responds to the immediate vicinity of Hothouse (Aliwal Arts Centre), situated within Kampong Glam neighbourhood.

Looking into the diagramming and expansion of memory with Hothouse as a starting point, this project serves as a theatre of memory, where latent traces and impressions of the locale are collected by artist–traceurs Rafi Abdullah, Kerem Ozan Bayraktar, Ruby Jayseelan and Safuan Johari. The digital environment incorporates the unique artistic interests of the four practitioners from different fields including sound, media art, movement and spoken word, and provides a space for collected elements to convolute and perform.

This interdisciplinary and prototyping project is initiated by Hothouse (Currency Design, formAxioms and INTER–MISSION) and supported by Teater Ekamatra - their first collaboration tapping on their shared history with #02-10 in Aliwal Arts Centre.
