KNOCK IT DOWN: An Exhibition on National Service presents a unique view of Singapore’s conscription system, seen through the eyes of pop artist Dan Wong (A Good Citizen). Since 1967, the decision to enforce military conscription has shaped the fabric of our nation, forming a common experience shared amongst every Singaporean citizen — men and women alike.

BODYY//ANOMALIES (2017)
Bizarre, disturbing and erotic, BODY//ANOMALIES promises a
surreal experience this Halloween season at ARTBLOVK Gallery, presented for the first time by young
Singaporean artists Olive and Celia.
Heavily influenced by the Ero Guro Nansensu movement (Guro for short), a Japanese art style hailing
from the imperialist 1920s-30s and most commonly seen in modern times in horror themed comics
by luminaries such as Shintaro Kago, Suehiro Maruo and Takato Yamamoto, this heady mix of
eroticism and mutilation of the human body also represents, in a twisted fashion, liberation and
empowerment of the female form through its exploration of the base nature of sexuality without
the constraints of morality.

Established in 2012 and helmed by Citizen Dan, the raw energy and brutal frankness of A Good Citizen’s (好公民) art explores topics of politics, gender, race and religion without reservations. SINGAWHORE features a deliciously unfiltered platter of previously unseen brand new works by A Good Citizen for the discerning crowd.
HIVEMIND (2017)
Yellow is a colour strongly associated with enlightenment and creativity, but also of danger, sickness and caution, a powerful metaphor in the experimental game concept HIVEMIND, now presented for the first time at ARTBLOVK GALLERY.
