Kintsugi

Some time towards the end of the year, I’m humbled to be part of the Yellow Ribbon Art Exhibition at the Singapore Art Museum. Inspired by the Kintsugi philosophy on aesthetic, I seek beauty out of flaws: a way of searching for possibilities in ‘negative space’. Instead of disguising our prison records, we highlight it as a daily reminder to not repeat our past mistakes. 

‘Family dinner’ is an artist-in-post-residence cry out to his fellow friends in prison to keep home close to their hearts; to harness the family as their strength when they re-embark on their journey back home.
