Held from January 19-28, "Singapore Art Week (SAW) 2024" saw a line-up of exciting events, including the second edition of "ART SG" and the "Light to Night Festival". Among them was a special commission by Valentino, the brand's second participation at SAW titled "Gestures of Affection" by interdisciplinary Singaporean artist, Sarah Choo Jing, at Soho Residency Singapore.
Inspired by Pierpaolo Piccioli's vision expressed through the spring/summer '24 Valentino L'Ecole collection and key codes of the house, "Gestures of Affection" highlights "the body in celebration of femininity and humanity". The seven artworks feature female protagonists that reference different phases of the moon, a powerful source of feminine energy. An immersive dining experience created by the artist in collaboration with Soho House for Valentino complemented the installation. Here, Choo tells us about this special commission and her practice.
