A group exhibition where every artwork is no larger than one metre in any dimension. Conceived in 2007 by FOST Gallery, the first edition of the exhibition runs from 10 May to 21 June 2025. 

Using rice as a material, RICE DISCS is a series of new works made with glutinous rice [mochiko] paste mixed with paper pulp and marble pit lime. They were conceptualised for The Feast collaboration with Native in March 2025. Powdered rice bran and curd, a by-product ingredient from Native were also used in some works. Made in the form of circular discs with the addition of historic pigments like natural lapis lazuli, gosu [cobalt-based pigment], gunjo [synthesized lead-free azurite pigment], ink and natural earth pigment, these works are an extension of Tan's stacked discs pigment and paper works from 2015 to 2016 and her interest in the materiality of pigments.
