Hothouse is a space in Singapore that supports and prototypes artistic practices. It nurtures experimentation and production as a mode of upending conventions and liberating inquiry. Founded in 2020, it is housed within space and time shared between art collective INTER–MISSION, design agency Currency, and more recently, research lab formAxioms.

This ever-evolving interdisciplinary setup encompasses expertise across contemporary art, technology, design, and architecture, allowing for emancipatory approaches toward knowledge building and dissemination.

INTER–MISSION

INTER–MISSION is a 2016 art collective founded by Urich Lau and Teow Yue Han. They explore the intersection of technology and art through interdisciplinary and collaborative works in various forms such as video, audiovisual, performance, installation, and interactive art. Their goal is to connect artists, audiences, and technologically engaged artwork.

FØRMAXIOMS

førmAxioms was founded in 2018 by Eva Castro and Federico Ruberto as a research framework, agency, and teaching cluster at SUTD. The agency is based on research that uses speculative narratives to engage in design, focusing on two scales: territorial and architectural assemblages.
