Moon Ensō (Engessō 円月相) is a site-responsive installation by Miya Ando, commissioned for ART SG Singapore 2025. The work consists of 29 suspended silk chiffon panels, each corresponding to a day in the lunar cycle, forming an immersive spatial environment that explores cyclical time, perception, and material ephemerality. Originating from Ando’s Moon Almanac—a durational drawing practice carried out daily over two and a half years during the COVID-19 pandemic—the project draws conceptually from the Zen symbol of the ensō, a calligraphic circle representing emptiness, continuity, and the non-dual nature of existence. The installation constructs a temporal architecture through light, translucency, and movement, inviting viewers to experience time as an embodied rhythm rather than a fixed chronology.
