This project, by the CCA’s 2022-2023 Emerging Curator Clarissa Lim Kye Lee, engages with collectives in the Malay Archipelago with aims of developing a shared toolkit for art and cultural workers globally. Through a series of workshops held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia in 2024, this project looks to Malaysian collective ecologies and their relationship to their urban environments for ways to reinscribe a concern for the social in contemporary art and architecture.
