Like its predecessor, the title brings together two ideas: the sea as a shared environment, and the act of crossing into unfamiliar territory.This iteration shifts the focus from sound to sensation. Where murmuring suggested quiet listening, salt tongues evokes a tactile, synaesthetic interplay of tasting, touching, and speaking. "Salt" recalls both the sea and the sharpness of flavour, while "tongues" refer to both language and the body. Together, they open a sensory space for connection and exchange.Salt and language also carry deeper resonances — of maritime trade, cultural movement, and translation. The phrase Far Shores Near plays with notions of distance and proximity, reflecting how two places can feel at once far apart and intimately connected. The exhibition draws on the contrasts between two port cities: Onomichi, where sea mist drifts through wooden hillsides, and Singapore, where a polyglot buzz animates a densely urban landscape.Related eventsOpening Reception | Tue 20 Jan, 6pm – 8pmGuided Tour with Curator and Artist | Sat 31 Jan, 5 – 6pm (RSVP )
