About Tupada Xing

Tupada Xing, a coined pedestrian acronym that means
Tupada Crossing, with emphasis on the letter "X" that
carries with it multilayered meanings: cross, action
(aXn), extreme, export, exchange, express, cross-over,
restricted, breaking away.
The essence of Tupada's International Tour for the
year 2006 is encapsulated in the symbol X. Such is the
nature of Tupada (both as cockfight and performance
art activity). And for Tupada, the year 2006 is a
year for breaking borders, crossing boundaries,
meaningful and creative exchange and __expression, and
a conscious breaking away from set conventions... and
yes, even local and international restrictions to
spontaneous street and public performances--the very
nature of Tupada. Components of Tupada Xing are
international performances and artistic ventures of
Tupada members Asia, America and and Latin America.

About Wunderspaze
Wunderspaze is a Singapore-based contemporary art
initiative that aims to be a site of exchange for
local and other Southeast Asian artists and
curators.The initiative intends to develop networks in
the region by way of facilitating transactions for
artists and curators alike. Aside from artistic
development within contemporary visual art and
associated practices, the concurrent direction is to
examine and develop curatorial approaches, models and
methodologies. Wunderspaze is in its infancy, having
been formed in late 2005. Currently, it is being
helmed and driven by its Artistic Director, Khairuddin Hori,
a multi-disciplinary artist who was worked across the
many forms of visual arts, theatre and performance
while maintaining a constant drive for the
experimental and the visceral. Khairuddin recently
graduated with Masters of Arts (Fine Arts) from the
Open University, UK, conducted at LASALLE-SIA College
of the Arts.
