Catalogue: The World Rolled off His Tongue

The World Rolled off His Tongue is the solo exhibition by Singaporean artist-curator Zulkhairi Zulkiflee. The exhibition title is inspired by a collage the artist made in 2024, which serves as a metaphorical nudge to the Malay-Singaporean slang term “world.” The English word, through a semantic shift, illustrates a conversational penchant that captures risible histrionics to innocent embellishment in storytelling.

This catalogue features a preface by the artist; an essay, Monumentalization as Method: The Worlded Pavilions, by Tan Yong Jun; and installation documentation of the exhibition.

Artist Zulkhairi Zulkiflee explores the concept of anti-monumentalism in this work by deconstructing the structural integrity of the pavilion into a flesh-like form, akin to an explosion.

We are in our final weekend of The World Rolled off His Tongue. Come visit us and (re)discover new ways of seeing.

Tongue (Even if He Were Given the World), 2024. Ink and solvent on photo paper, 40 x 52.5 cm (Framed).

Printed on photo paper where red ink and solvent obliterate the structure, this formal gesture of "dematerialization" alludes to the conceptualist notion that ideas take precedence over form.

​When compared to the slang term "world," the result is uncannily similar; stories, as concepts, has a dematerializing effect. Here, the physical surface alludes to the tongue dripping into image as erasure.

One of two works inspired by Samuel Beckett’s absurdist masterpiece, Waiting for Godot, where its protagonist tussles with the search for meaning amidst an otherwise futile existence, artist Zulkhairi Zulkiflee deconstructs the commonplace pavilion into a stage set and imagines two people among the debris engaging in a dialogue. In doing so, a performance is staged; and with each passing word, they speak their existence into being.

Pavilion (Tanglin Halt Before Dust), 2025. 3D print, paint and wood, Dimensions variable.

“A common man experiencing a slip of the tongue during a conversation. As it picks up pace and momentum builds, he creates a sense of suspension for himself (and his listeners).

His story firms up, and all creases disappear. This man is not particularly charming or a great orator, but there is a palpable stake in the story he shares. He must speak it into existence (we must enable it to exist)...”

— Excerpt from the Preface to the exhibition catalogue ‘The World Rolled off His Tongue’, by Zulkhairi Zulkiflee

Structurally resembling the commonplace pavilion that we recognise, but not quite. The sculptural structures featured in Zul’s works are now charged with a sense of dynamism and playfulness that allude to bodily gestures – and from within, a new ‘world’ comes into being.

These two works were first exhibited in Chicago in 2024. Zul’s research into the presence of Javanese in Chicago through the Chicago World’s Fair in 1893, while pursuing his Master of Fine Arts, catalysed the itinerancy of built structures based on accounts of how the Javanese village was pre-assembled in Java before arriving in Chicago. This sowed the seeds of inspiration for this series. What began in Chicago continues to diverge and converge, culminating afresh back home for the 2026 edition of @sgartweek.

🗓 21 Jan – 13 Feb 2026
📍Stamford Arts Centre, #02-02

✨Informal opening reception with the artist in attendance✨
21 Jan 2026 (Wed) | 5–9 pm

As part of @sgartweek 2026, we are delighted to collaborate with Singaporean artist-curator Zulkhairi Zulkiflee to present his solo exhibition titled The World Rolled off His Tongue. This title is inspired by a collage the artist made in 2024, which serves as a metaphorical nudge to the Malay-Singaporean slang term ‘world.’ In the exhibition, Zulkhairi hones the slang term as a springboard for experimentation, presenting linguistic and artistic ideas that frolic and eventually evolve into paintings on photo paper, collages, sculpture, and narrative writing.

This exhibition also continues the artist’s inquiry into the pavilion, which he situates as a space where such idiosyncratic exchanges occur. In this context, the pavilion also serves as a mnemonic structure and ‘monument’ for its capacity to evoke formative memories, and its potential to accommodate other structural significance.

About the Artist:
Through a lens-based practice spanning image, video, sculpture, and objects, Zulkhairi’s interest often begins with Malayness and its contemporary status in Singapore, expanding into art history, racialised masculinities, and cultural studies. In 2022, Zulkhairi debuted with a solo exhibition that focused on the Malay Boy trope through the oeuvre of Singaporean pioneer artist Cheong Soo Pieng. Since then, Zulkhairi has received a Master of Fine Arts in Art from the University of Illinois at Chicago with a Fulbright scholarship, and is currently a PhD candidate at Nanyang Technological University’s School of Art, Design and Media (NTU ADM).

I will be showing 13 commissioned panels titled Untitled (Monuments In Conversation) for the landmark exhibition Artist’s Proof: Singapore At 60 (AP60), opening on 13 Jul at Helutrans.

In this work, I'm engaging with the pavilion as a monument while meditating on everyday spatial practices and incipient narratives found within the sheltered structure.

Zinkepoel (2025)
7:31 mins

In making sense of the uncanny "Zinkepoel," the film trails through the ghost town of Singapore, Michigan, by meditating on the landscape as a conceptual terrain. By thinking about the unknowable, Singapore, Michigan, is engaged through its simultaneous"absence" and "excess."
