Amy Cheung has contributed with a network fiber optic installation that reads into city dwelling stories in Western literature and places them metaphorically in the middle of the buzz of Bangkok. Oscar Wilde serves as a literary reference in the making process of this new work, which at the same time looks inside human nature.

MAP OFFICE contribution is based on their ongoing research project on islands, this time, 100+1 islands in a grid pattern will occupy the gallery floor, creating an installation that has its centerpiece in the island of Koh Tapu, a real place connected to fictional imagery and Southeast Asia.

Wei Leng Tay has created a photographic series for this project. Through her lens she has researched on the neighborhood of Hua Lamphong in Bangkok, creating a visual map of its inhabitants.
