DOKYU (formerly known as DOCUMENT), organized by Yale-NUS poet Lawrence Lacambra Ypil, historian Naoko Shimazu, and visual artist James Jack, joins triangular groups (writer:historian:artist) in conversation about artistic practices, research methodology, and place-based thinking. Over the course of the next two years, we will meet, talk, and make work together and apart. The emphasis is on process rather than results, but we also hope to generate work that is shareable in performance, installation, and/or published forms. Look out for the folio I’ve guest-edited on the project, including a collective interview and several collaborative artworks, in the December 2023 issue of ASAP Journal. The project’s public interface is live, and my collaborations with James Jack are viewable here.
