Perception3 is an interdisciplinary art duo founded in 2007 by artist and writer Regina De Rozario and design practitioner Seah Sze Yunn. Their collaborative practice is currently focused on exploring the notions of loss and memory in the wake of Singapore’s transformation of its city spaces; in particular, how these changes may transform one’s sense of place and ‘home’. Through their work, they point to the relationships encountered between the self and city, and how narratives and art may play a role in shaping what is to be forgotten and remembered. Their works are expressed primarily through text, photography, digital video, and site-specific installation, and have been collected and showcased in Singapore and internationally.
