Saturday Mornings: Punggol's Past at Risk of Disappearing Fast

🌍On MoneyFM 89.3’s Singapore Home Brew Segment, Lim Su Pei joins Saturday Mornings Show host Glenn van Zutphen to discuss one of the most meaningful arts‑and‑community projects happening in Singapore today. The non-profit OH! Open House, with its 16 years of site‑specific art, has spent the past 18 months in Singapore's Punggol area asking a powerful question: Can a community actively build its own cultural memory before it disappears? Deputy Director Lim Su Pei unpacks how OH! has been working with long‑time residents, embedded artists, volunteers, and community partners to uncover stories that predate Punggol’s “model town of the future” narrative: fishing villages, pig farms, seaside restaurants, kampungs, and families whose memories are fading as the estate modernises. Through conversations, artist residencies, volunteerism, and participatory artworks, OH! transforms everyday spaces into living archives where personal histories are shared, experienced, and preserved. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
