Abstract
Priyageetha Dia is a Singapore-based transdisciplinary artist whose work brings together South-East Asian plantation histories, postcolonial memory, migration politics, and extractivism as it relates to both labour and data. The conversation focuses on submerged and speculative archives of indentureship in Dia’s work. Dia describes how specific strategies, such as layering archival images, embodying diasporic Tamil ritual, as well as incorporating CGI and 3D animation in her moving image installations create a counter archive of the histories and afterlives of indentureship in present-day Malaysia and Singapore.
Priyageetha Dia 是一位来自新加坡的跨学科艺术家，其作品汇集了东南亚种植园历史、后殖民记忆、移民政治以及与劳动和数据相关的采掘主义。对话的重点是迪亚作品中被淹没和被推测的契约档案。迪亚描述了她如何通过特定的策略，如将档案图像分层、体现散居泰米尔人的仪式，以及将 CGI 和三维动画融入她的动态影像装置中，在当今的马来西亚和新加坡创造出契约历史和契约后遗症的反档案。
