Art in the Commons: Dakota-Cassia

In collaboration with socially engaged theatre company Drama Box, Art in the Commons: Dakota – Cassia is a multi-year project which consists of public multidisciplinary art practices involving constituents of the Dakota and Mountbatten districts of Singapore.

Aside from community programmes with artists, one of the key activations at Cassia Crescent is Boleh Bank. It is a local adaptation and interpretation of Tokui-no Bank, an arts intervention project originally conceptualised by Japanese artist Takafumi Fukasawa that centers community’s assets in developing healthier, more resilient neighbourhoods. Residents deposit their assets (knowledge, life experience, skills, time etc.), from which they can also withdraw assets from other residents according to their needs.
