Rifqi AMirul ROsli (B. 1994)
Rifqi Amirul Rosli is an artist in Singapore whose works often deals with the in-between of things: states of suspension, transition, liminality. He probes into the construction of personal boundaries and speculative states that defines one’s purpose and sentimentality towards a place. He describes the personal connection one has to a physical, or an imagined place, which may not necessarily be a typical home, but could relate to a sense of familiarity, a tradition or a regular activity that becomes a part of one’s identity. Rifqi Amirul has also taken part in exhibitions such as an edifice w/o (Objectifs, 2020), The Fabric of Sympathy (ICAS, 2020) Nyanyi Sunyi (Gillman Barracks, 2018), 4D: Not Another Dimension (ISLANDS Peninsula, 2019). Rifqi is also the Co-founder of the collective Pure Ever, an alliance of people whose goal is an aspiration to find commonality and collective foresight through nuanced and intense forms of art making; one that hopefully occupies a more generous spirit of collaboration, creativity, networking, and solidarity-making. |
