STPI presents Rirkrit Tiravanija: SAY YES TO EVERYTHING, a solo exhibition by the internationally acclaimed Argentine born Thai artist. One of the most widely celebrated figures in the contemporary art world, Tiravanija has pioneered participatory practices that reshaped how institutions consider audience, social connection, and art objects themselves. Famous for transforming everyday actions into art by centring process over outcome, Tiravanija invites audiences to participate in ordinary social acts such as eating, playing, and talking – placing emphasis on the human connections that arise.

The exhibition marks Tiravanija’s largest in Singapore to date, offering local audiences an unparalleled opportunity to engage firsthand with a comprehensive retrospective of his seminal works. As a pillar of Singapore’s art scene, STPI extends its legacy of community building in tandem with Tiravanija – who has completed multiple residencies with the gallery – to exhibit interactive works that importantly centre around community engagement.

Bringing together a selection of editioned objects and prints spanning over a decade, Tiravanija’s work explores themes of migration, travel, belonging, and displacement.
