The School of Contemporary Art (SCA) at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver is a respected interdisciplinary art school that encompasses dance, film, music, theatre performance and production, and visual art. SCA has been an important contributor to the cultural ecology of the city of Vancouver and has been instrumental in both bringing visiting artists to the city and connecting them with the cultural community. This grant will allow SCA to host Ming Wong, an internationally renowned Berlin-based Singaporean artist, while he develops an ambitious project to explore the emergence of Cantonese opera cinema.
