Why is there no goose meat in Singapore?为什么新加坡吃不到鹅肉？

For this exhibition, Koh Nguang How returned to photographs of Tang Da Wu’s goose-burial performance and recombined archival material with contemporary images and objects. The resulting installation, Why There Is No Goose Meat in Singapore?, was made in 2026.

The catalogue reads the work through a collision between Cantonese and Teochew food traditions, the retreat of farming, quarantine rules and the regulation of imports. A question about something absent from the table becomes a way to examine cultural life within the structures of an island-state. The installation also shows how an archive can generate a new work and a new public question.

许元豪为本次展览重新选取唐大雾“埋葬鹅”行为艺术的摄影文献，并与当代图像、物件组合，形成2026年的装置《为什么新加坡吃不到鹅肉？》。

图册从粤、潮饮食传统、农业养殖的退场、检疫制度与进口管理之间的碰撞来解释这件作品。餐桌上缺少的一道食物，成为观察岛国制度与文化生活关系的入口。装置也呈现了档案如何被重新激活，生成一件新作品和一个新的公共问题。
