SPADICE


"The stars will never be won by little minds; we must be big as space itself." ~Robert A. Heinlein SPADICE (Surface Pattern Art & Design Interdisciplinary Collaborative Effort) Established in 2021, SPADICE is a new project concept initiated by its founder Tan Haur (Singapore) during the COVID-19 pandemic, whereby many art educators are facing quite a fair bit of challenges in the physical classroom teaching & learning, as well as brick-and-mortar space to showcase and share the artistic effort of the creators. The key idea of SPADICE is to enable the participants to have a feel of how their two-dimensional drawing (digital/ conventional media) can be transformed and realized in the form of a 3-D product after attending Tan Haur's NAC AEP courses and visual art workshops. As for phase one of the SPADICE project (November 2021 - 31st March 2022), the team is working with the Rainbow Centre (Margaret Drive School), River Valley High School, and Anderson Serangoon Junior College as a start. This project is to let the students experience a full journey from their learning to art creation and virtual presentation. SPADICE also works with several guests, including SEPs, musicians, artists with special needs, designers, crafters, and independent art creators who specialize in areas with their right and churn out something new with the surface pattern design methodology and craft technology via collaborative effort. Over this growing platform, we encourage communication, suggestions, and future collaboration. Together, we’ll be able to improve, grow, and benefit everybody in a long run. Hence, SPADICE encompasses a complete journey started from curriculum design, teaching, learning, drawing, painting, pattern-designing, printing, and crafting till finished 3-D products for sharing. We welcome your constructive input as well as all forms of support. Thank you very much!

Sewing Happiness: A Series of Fun & Simple Fabric Collage Projects for Learning Great & Living Well.


Project of 2017


“Blossom Colours of Life” is a community art project co-created by Singaporean artist, Tan Haur, with patients of Jurong Community Hospital. Strolling down memory lane with the patients, the artist gathered heart-warming stories of senior participants through simple heartfelt conversations and craft sessions and translated them into a visual journal of 15 colourful fabric collage artworks. The art-making process encourages patients to revisit those nostalgic scenes of yesteryears and reminisce about their favourite food, the simple life and the good old kampong days. Stories were stitched together to form intricate fabric collages of iconic landmarks like the former National Theatre and objects like Tingkat and rotary dial phone – each rekindling a connection between the past and the present. The pattern-rich art pieces adorn the walls of Jurong Community Hospital, bringing to life stories and experiences of our shared heritage and history that would allow patients to relive fond memories and be inspired with hope and optimism.

[ About the Artist ]
Multidisciplinary Singaporean artist, Tan Haur, spent most of his childhood at his grandmother’s dressmaking studio near Boat Quay playing with stacks of fabrics and nitty-gritty sewing tools. Inspired by his mother (a seamstress) and wife (an arts and crafts trainer), Tan incorporates sewing and crafting in his artistic practices. Tan graduated from the Australian National University (College of Arts & Social Sciences) in 2007 and has since worked with various social groups and organizations on collaborative art projects.

Fabric collage: Craft space



































"I enjoyed decorating and working in my crafts space, just like how cats relax and play at their own pace and time. Life used to move at a much slower pace compared to now."
- Mdm Ho, 94

When Mdm Ho was younger, she made her own clothes with a traditional sewing machine. She would use old newspapers as her dressmaking pattern paper templates.

Fabric collage: Singapore National Theatre






















"There were many international performances here. Some people could not get tickets, so they ran up the hill behind to watch it for free."
- Mr. Surmani, 72

"Many people like to take photos here last time. It was surrounded by beautiful flower gardens and magnificent landscapes."
- Mdm Chan, 70


*Singapore National Theatre: Officially opened on 8 August 1963, this theatre was built to commemorate the attainment of Singapore’s self-government in 1959. It was demolished in 1986 due to structural reasons.

Dragon Slide





























"The reason playground slides are made is for us to experience the joy of falling even if there's no one to catch us."

Fabric collage: Typewriter



"You could engage some of the five-foot-way letter-writers downtown to type a letter or fill up a form. Depending on how lengthy the letters were, fees could be as low as a cup of coffee."
- Mdm Chan, 70

Mdm Chan recalled how mechanical typewriter was not a common sight in the old kampong days and not everyone could read and write.

*The five-foot way was a unique feature of Malaya’s shophouses. Stamford Raffles, the founder of modern Singapore, stipulated that shophouses must have a covered walkway of about five feet along its street front.
*Five-foot-way traders were craftsmen who conducted their businesses along shophouse walkways that were five feet wide. Five-foot-way traders included: knife sharpeners, roadside barbers, mask makers, fortune tellers, locksmiths, letter writers, traditional “medicine men” (known as bomoh in Malay), newspaper vendors, storytellers, tinsmiths, hair-bun makers, bench makers, garland makers, stamp dealers and food vendors.
