Fear No Power: Women Imagining Otherwise

This publication accompanies the exhibition Fear No Power: Women Imagining Otherwise. It constellates the practices of Nirmala Dutt, Imelda Cajipe Endaya, Amanda Heng, Dolorosa Sinaga and Phaptawan Suwannakudt-artists for whom art, life and community are intertwined. Spanning the 1960s to 2010s, their works engage questions of gender, labour and power amid the shifting social and political landscapes of Southeast Asia.

Featuring a commissioned text by Flaudette May Datuin, curatorial essays and republished writings and interviews with the artists, this book foregrounds their multifaceted roles as educators, writers, organisers and community builders. It traces how they have mobilised

and reconfigured more fluid and equitable worlds for themselves and others-offering not answers but possibilities for how we might continue to imagine, act and create otherwise.
