Screenings of Brother Joe

‍

Screenings of Brother Joe, a documentary commissioned by LASALLE with support from The Ireland Funds Singapore, gave audiences a haunting, elegiac look into the life of a man of the cloth who dared to dream beyond borders. LASALLE was honoured to host Helen O'Toole, Brother McNally's niece and former LASALLE lecturer, at a special panel discussion with director James Khoo and Senior Fellow Milenko Prvacki on 26 October 2023.

Blossoms for Brother Joe, a floral art installation made from upcycled plastic bottles, was displayed on LASALLE's iconic Sky Bridge during Singapore Art Week in January 2024. The blossoms were created by members of the public and the LASALLE community, symbolising the vibrant diversity of the ecosystem of arts and creative practitioners who have graduated from LASALLE since its founding in 1984.
