Singaporean artist Sam Lo came into Sunday Arts Magazine to talk about her current piece of work at the Melbourne Festival, Progress: The Game of Leaders. It is playful and interactive and asks what is put in peril by the unfettered progress of the First World. It is a refreshing take on world politics for a time that sorely needs it.
Like a giant round of Jenga with Western civilisation as the stakes, Progress: The Game of Leaders invites you to take on the role of building a country. What blocks will you favour: economic progress or military spending? Higher standards of living or increasing globalisation? As players jockey for top position in the imaginary nation’s guidance, the structure grows more precarious and its foundations grow ever more compromised. The game can only end one way.
