Enabling Village marks 10th anniversary with inclusive showcase of works
SG Enable unveiled its i’mable Collective Space in October at the Enabling Village in Bukit Merah – the first showcase shining the spotlight on Singapore’s creative community of people with disabilities.
SG Enable, Singapore’s focal agency for disability and inclusion, also marks the 10th anniversary of the Enabling Village with the unveiling of the new space.
Since its 2019 inception, i’mable Collective has launched unique training, employment, retail and even fashion design partnerships.
Its i’mable Collective Space is an additional platform for designers, businesses and community partners to enable people with disabilities to gain experience in gig and longer-term work.
Spanning more than 800 sq m, it brings together eight partner organisations in an integrated hub, housing a retail store, gallery, studios and a cafe.
Home-grown design lifestyle brand Supermama runs the flagship weareSuper store, studio and gallery. It also operates the i’mable Collective Space, setting a new bar for inclusive retail.
The space’s debut exhibition, Design Social, which runs till Dec 12, highlights accessibility-focused projects as well as standout works from more than 20 creatives with disabilities. Many of these works are from the Emerge@Find fair which ran from Sept 11 to 13 as part of Singapore Design Week.
Prices for works in the collection range from $28 to $88.
Supermama founder Edwin Low, who helms the weareSuper outlet, says the i’mable Collective Space is open to all, inviting Singaporeans to shop, co-create and reimagine what inclusion means.
“We’re here to use art and design to reframe perceptions and build real prospects for creatives of all abilities.”
