interventions by anyhowplayplay

interventions is a series of scored improvisational responses by Chew Shaw En and Moira Loh where they lend their attentions to the exhibition and its visitors.

It looks at the way they take up space, and how they interact and process another work of art. By responding, what else do they create in the process? Their afternoon of interventions will exist across four sessions, responding to different exhibits in Orchestral Manoeuvres: See Sound. Feel Sound. Be Sound.

Chew Shaw En and Moira Loh are part of anyhowplayplay, a multidisciplinary improvisational experience act, together with pianist Churen Li, film director Clare Chong and sound artist weish.
