PHUNK at S.E.A Focus 2021 Curated : hyper-horizon

In Control Chaos, PHUNK has portrayed a new world, inspired by their childhood memories, Chinese mythology and memorable landmarks like Haw Par Villa. Control Chaos depicted heaven, earth and hell, and reflections and imaginations of their environments at the time of its creation. Each character in this new world has its own sets of orders and lives according to those truths it values.  However, then the distinct universes of the characters are put together, the result is a symptomatic chaos – like the title, it is a “CONTROL CHAOS”.  Beyond the humorous icons and contradictions, PHUNK suggests a glimpse of postmodern identity – singular and universal.  In that, the characters maintain their individual identity/universe without being classified or categorized, and yet, they also coexist inside the boundaryless chaos. This chaos, in the post-mechanical age, might be new vision of fluid utopia. The meaning and relevance of Control Chaos reflected the world environment at the time of its’ creation – post the 11 September 2001 attacks, and continues its relevance and significance to our current world of Brexit, Trump and The Umbrella Movement. This seminar work is the central theme of PHUNK’s 25th anniversary celebrations.
