NOWNESS return this year with two evenings of screenings, exploring contemporary Asian perspectives and the diverse voices of its diasporas. Across three curated lineups — with exclusive VIP premieres, and a permanent installation — the selection draws from signature series such as Private View, Constructed Views, Raw Materials, and NOWNESS Experiments. Featuring artists such as Bharti Kher, Ding Yi, and Torlarp Larpjaroensook, the program examines themes of memory, materiality, architecture, and spatial identity.
