Boo Junfeng

Boo’s short film Parting was part of 7 Letters, a film anthology commissioned to commemorate Singapore’s 50th year of independence. Boo is the youngest artist included in this anthology, which was also the opening film of the refurbished Capitol Theatre. This exhibition marks his first foray into a gallery space. Previously, Boo participated in the 2013 Singapore Biennale with Happy and Free, and he won the President’s Young Talent Award 2013 for his work Mirror. Boo’s first feature film Sandcastle (2010) was the first Singaporean film accepted at the International Critics’ Week at Cannes Film Festival. His second feature film, Apprentice, has been invited to premiere this year at Cannes Official Selection Un Certain Regard.
