Presented by The Arts House, 'Anatomy of Performance' is a photographic exhibition on dance and theatre in Singapore by prominent photographer Tan Ngiap Heng. This body of work, part of his 'Work in Progress' project spanning over 4 years, captured the front and behind stage of various theatre productions.
POSTER
Keeping in mind that the exhibition presents photographic work of not only the front but behind the stages as well, the identity graphic has the corner of the front stage production image partially folded, revealing a behind-the-scene from the same production. This mirror the intention of the exhibition.
LEAFLET
The unfolding of the leaflet mimics anatomy movements seen in a dance performance. The overall typography treatment is contemporary, elegant yet with a sense of movement that plays a visual rhythmn.
EXHIBITION
Each of the eight stories are carefully designed and presented within the walking flow of the exhibition space in a consistent manner. Complementing the main photographic images, these story boards enrich the audience with collected observations, anecdoctes and stories in form of written essays and visual journals by Ngiap Heng throughout his 4-year documentating this project.
