Synopsis:

Embark on a profound exploration of two leading artists who have indelibly shaped the cultural narrative of Singapore – Cultural Medallion recipient Chng Seok Tin and Young Artist Award recipient Raymond Lau Poo Seng. In this duo solo exhibition, take a deep dive into their expansive careers that are deeply intertwined with the history of Singapore's art landscape from the 1970s to the present day. A woman ahead of her times, a man enthralled with memories of yesteryears, over 70 prints, sculptures and abstract streetscapes from Chng's and Lau's decades-long practice will be on show, inviting viewers to ponder over love, freedom, identity and shared memories of nationhood.

In honour of the late Chng, this exhibition also serves as a fundraiser for the CST Education Fund, which supports the training of emerging artists with disabilities. Through industry mentorship programmes organised by ART:DIS, the fund nurtures the professional development of artists with disabilities, ensuring that Chng's commitment to artistic education and inclusivity continues to inspire future generations.
