Alice hails from Texas, but lives in Portugal instead. Sometimes her English is perfect but sometimes it is deteriorating. Alice won a million dollars in a lottery and she paints her fingernails in red daily. She might be someone you know or perhaps you have never heard of her. So does Alice really exist in this world?

Singaporean choreographer Joavien Ng and Spanish choreographer Paloma Calle are currently undertaking a one month residency at Rimbun Dahan supported by the Asia-Europe Foundation. During their residency, Joavien and Paloma are collaborating to create a new performance work entitled “The Diary of Alice”, intertwining the concepts of fiction and identity.

Rimbun Dahan, with support from the Asia-Europe Foundation are proud to present a performance laboratory and public lecture by Joavien Ng and Paloma Calle, at The Annexe Gallery, as part of their residency programme.


Performance Laboratory
Come join a three hour performance laboratory with Joavien Ng and Paloma Calle, exploring creative processes associated with the body, objects, space, image and sound. Artists in all genres are invited to participate, as Paloma and Joavien facilitate a development process involving their new piece “The Diary of Alice”. Each participant are required to bring a digital camera or (camera phone) and an object with special meaning to the participant, either positive or negative. Participants are requested to wear loose comfortable clothes, as some movement will be involved.

Public Lecture
Joavien Ng and Paloma Calle will give a lecture presentation on their previous works, followed by a Q and A session.
