For its seventeenth edition, Singapore Night Festival introduced the inaugural MALAM Projection Mapping Competition. Supported by Epson, the competition transformed the historic façade of The Cathay into a canvas for emerging digital artists from across Southeast Asia. Qazim Karim, Festival Director, and Alex Chua of Epson share their thoughts.
As night falls over Singapore, history becomes a canvas and imagination comes alive through light. The inaugural MALAM Projection Mapping Competition celebrates the creativity of Southeast Asia’s finest digital artists, while Epson’s projection technology transforms their visions into breathtaking large-scale experiences. Together, art and technology are redefining how stories are told—one projection at a time.
