MOCA Singapore Presents 3001 KM: Eight Years Between Us, in Partnership with PureView Art Foundation

Published

on

A rare exhibition tracing an eight-year cross-cultural art journey between rural Yunnan and Singapore, showing how long-term youth art education can transform confidence, community and connection.

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 18 December 2025 – MOCA Singapore presents 3001 KM: Eight Years Between Us, in partnership with PureView Art Foundation, one of the region’s few long-term cross-cultural youth art practices. The exhibition brings together drawings, letters, photographs and archival materials documenting an eight-year journey between rural Yunnan and Singapore, showing how sustained art education can transform confidence, community and connection.

The title references the straight-line distance between Dagaji Village in Yunnan, China, and Singapore. It also reflects the time, trust and relationships nurtured through PureView’s long-term engagement with children in rural and underserved communities.

“PureView does not aim to change every child’s destiny. Instead, we hope to open a small but real window at a moment in their growth so they know that someone in the world sees them, listens to them and believes in them,” said Dr. Jie Li-Elbrächter, Founder and Curator of PureView Art Foundation.

Long-term engagement across five rural regions

The project began in 2018 when PureView volunteers first arrived in Dagaji Village, a rural community where children shyly offered their earliest drawings. This moment shaped the initiative’s commitment to long-term engagement rather than short-term projects.

Over eight years, PureView’s team worked with approximately 15 to 20 children each year through a one-to-one exchange model with youth volunteers. To date, the initiative has involved around 400 youth and adult volunteers across five rural regions, adapting formats including online exchanges during the pandemic to maintain continuity.

The exhibition features hundreds of artworks and archival materials, including artworks created by participating children.

It also documents visible change within Dagaji Village, where water systems have been installed, new shops have opened and children from the earliest years of the project have reached new milestones, including university enrollment. Younger siblings now continue their journey with the project, taking up the brush in the same classrooms where their older siblings once began.

A timely exhibition for Singapore

This exhibition arrives at a moment when Singapore is placing greater focus on youth development, community arts and cross-cultural understanding. As regional inequalities widen and post-pandemic recovery continues, initiatives like PureView highlight the role of long-term arts engagement in building empathy, resilience and connection across diverse communities.

A social practice shaped by continuity, not funding cycles

While often compared to art NGOs, PureView operates as a long-term cultural and educational practice rooted in field research and repeat return visits. PureView is grounded in Dr. Jie Li-Elbrächter’s long-term research in art anthropology and rural development. The work prioritises children’s agency, ethical observation and relationships built over many years rather than seasonal programming.

PureView was co-initiated by Dr. Jie Li, an art anthropologist specialising in rural development, together with three children from the project, Letian, Luan and Luna. The children have grown alongside the initiative and now take on significant roles, helping shape the project’s direction and ensuring that the stories of participating communities remain their own.

Opening programme and community collaboration

The exhibition opening featured guided tours led by youth volunteers in both Chinese and English, reflecting the project’s practice of “children drawing children”. A Peking Opera presentation introduced by volunteers in earlier field visits was also part of the programme, demonstrating how cultural traditions travel and evolve through education.

ANTA Group supported the initiative by providing apparel for volunteers and children over two consecutive years. Through repeated workshops and field visits, the apparel brand supported a sense of equality and belonging for children.

This support fosters a shared identity and stable experience during workshops and field activities. ANTA’s involvement reflects its belief that physical education and aesthetic education work together to strengthen confidence, resilience and self-expression.

Introducing the International Youth Art Biennale

At the opening, PureView announced the launch of the International Youth Art Biennale in 2026. The biennale will begin with participation from China, Southeast Asia and selected international partners, focusing on children and youth aged 8 to 18.

The biennale will emphasise long-term engagement, care and continuity rather than competition. Schools and youth groups will be able to join through open calls, curated partnerships and online collaborative programmes designed for accessibility to underserved communities.

Scaling impact while maintaining depth

From 2026 onward, PureView will adopt a dual-track model that continues in-depth field visits while offering expanded online courses. This model is expected to reach approximately 3000 to 5000 rural children each year while preserving the ethics and depth of the project’s long-term practice.

The exhibition is a quiet reminder that when time, care and creativity travel together, even the smallest gestures can illuminate an entire community.

MANILA, PHILIPPINES – Media OutReach Newswire – 31 July 2026 – VinFast has officially launched its electric motorcycle ecosystem in the Philippines, opening 21 VinFast showrooms alongside the debut of three models, Evo, Feliz II, and Viper. The milestone marks an important step in VinFast’s expansion in one of Southeast Asia’s largest two-wheeler markets, bringing modern, cost-effective, and sustainable mobility solutions closer to consumers while laying the foundation for a comprehensive green mobility ecosystem in the Philippines.

Vinfast Opens 21 Electric Motorcycle Showrooms, Deepening Its Green Mobility Presence In The Philippines.

The 21 pioneer dealerships will begin operations in major cities nationwide, expanding consumer access to VinFast products and authorized services. The network is expected to grow further in the coming period, progressively expanding VinFast’s presence across the Philippines.

The simultaneous opening of 21 showrooms comes just over a month after the success of VinFast’s early booking program, which attracted thousands of customers nationwide. The strong market response to VinFast’s battery-swapping electric motorcycles not only demonstrates the products’ appeal but also underscores the company’s investment commitment and rapid expansion in the Philippines.

VinFast aims to develop its dealerships as all-in-one destinations, bringing product displays, energy solutions, and technical services together under one roof. Customers can receive personalized consultations, take test rides, experience a one-minute battery swap, explore home-charging solutions, and choose an ownership option that best suits their needs, with professional support throughout the entire journey, from initial product discovery to after-sales service.

In addition to the official showcase of the brand’s first product lineup and its full range of available colors, the launch featured test rides and one-minute battery-swapping demonstrations. The brand also shared its official local pricing, battery solutions, and supporting ecosystem, including plans to deploy 30,000 battery-swapping cabinets nationwide in partnership with infrastructure providers.

Following the launch event, a series of public experience activities will take place at the new dealerships throughout August 2026. Customers will be able to see and test ride the three models, learn about battery technology and sales policies, and explore flexible ownership options. Details of the test ride program and applicable terms are available on VinFast’s official website: vinfastauto.ph/en.

To celebrate the occasion, participating dealerships will introduce a variety of exclusive offers and promotional programs, providing additional benefits and value for early adopters.

Ms. Vo Thi Cam Tu, CEO of VinFast E-Scooters & E-Bikes, International Markets, said: “Opening 21 VinFast showrooms alongside the launch of our three electric motorcycle models reflects VinFast’s long-term investment commitment to the Philippines. Beyond offering products that meet diverse mobility needs, we are building a comprehensive ecosystem that makes it easier for customers to access our vehicles, energy solutions, and support services throughout their ownership journey. As our electric mobility ecosystem continues to expand, we believe electric motorcycles can become an increasingly practical and convenient choice in the everyday lives of Filipinos.”

Evo, Feliz II, and Viper each offer distinct characteristics designed to meet a wide range of mobility needs and riding styles. Evo combines elegant styling with everyday agility, offering a top speed of 80 km/h and a range of up to 150 km with two fully charged batteries. Feliz II emphasizes practicality and versatile performance, with a top speed of 90 km/h. Rounding out the lineup is Viper, featuring a sporty design, maximum power output of 5,200W, and a top speed of 90 km/h, aimed at younger riders who value technology and engaging riding experience.

All three models feature two under-seat battery compartments and are compatible with VinFast’s battery-swapping solution, giving riders greater flexibility and convenience in everyday use. Customers can also choose between purchasing their motorcycle with batteries included or subscribing to a battery subscription plan, depending on their needs and usage patterns.

Notably, VinFast electric motorcycle owners will receive free battery swaps at public swapping stations operated by strategic partner V-Green for one year, with up to 20 swaps per month per vehicle. The models are also covered by a 4+2-year or 60,000+12,000-km warranty, whichever comes first, providing customers with greater benefits, lower operating costs, and long-term peace of mind.

VinFast’s entry into the Philippine electric motorcycle market builds on its expansion across key Southeast Asian markets, following the opening of 20 electric motorcycle dealerships in Indonesia in July 2026. By steadily expanding its presence, VinFast is building out a comprehensive green mobility ecosystem across the region, making it easier for consumers to transition to smarter, more modern, and environmentally-friendly transportation solutions.
