Ever-Were, the third solo exhibition by Shen Jiaqi (b.1989) is a poignant reflection of the inevitability of change and its resultant effects of perpetual displacement experienced by individuals who inhabit developing urban environments. Her practice examines themes of boundaries, culmination of routines, along with environmental and social constraints. Through her practice, she seeks to explore the internalisation of subconscious yearning for sanctuary within the urban environment of Singapore.
