COBO SOCIAL | Fyerool Darma: Destructing and Reconstructing Regional History

Naima Morelli, Cobo Social, February 22, 2022

Young Singaporean artist Fyerool Darma works with the forgotten histories of Singapore, drawing from its Malay past. We have recently seen his work at Art Stage Singapore, at the art center Objectifs and in the Singapore Biennale.

 

Fyerool Darma’s world is black and white, sleek and genuine, conceptual yet tied to the peculiarity of materials. If you were in Singapore at the beginning of 2017, you couldn’t help encountering his work everywhere – in very different sectors of the art world.
