It was 2016 that I first heard of this gallery. However, I had never made a visit to it until today. It’s 2020 now! Omg.

In this show, they exhibit 15 artists’s works for 3 weeks to celebrate the gallery’s six year old birthday.

With a blaze of colours, this wall welcoming guests at the first sight.

A piece of work from Desire Obtain Cherish’s Meltdown series is available at the gallery.

“Jonathan Paul (aka Desire Obtain Cherish)’s body of work explores the decision-making process we undergo while chasing the elusive state of happiness. Whether happiness is understood through finances, beauty, sex, or intelligence, artist Jonathan Paul, aka Desire Obtain Cherish, is fascinated with the pursuit and the decisions involved in such a journey.” -UNIX Gallery

Next, the most impressive work. A wooden box made by Swedish artist Marck.

March uses the wooden box with images of the model moving and writhing inside the box to showcase the framework modern women are still facing in these days.

I escaped to Singapore for five days in September. As I made the third day of the trip a day for museums and galleries, I visited the National Gallery Singapore to begin the day.

I went to see both Lim Cheng Hoe’s and Wu Guanzhong’s solo exhibitions, and the first one came with a free guide. Aside from guiding us through the show, the guide also shared some stories about the development of Singapore with us.

National Gallery Singapore offers free guides to visitors in English and Mandarin. You can register to join at the ground floor.

“Lim Cheng Hoe (1912–1979) was the leading watercolour artist of his generation and one of the founders of the Singapore Watercolour Society. Largely self-taught, he studied painting under the then-art inspector of schools, Richard Walker, and honed his skills in the 1950s and 1970s by practicing and interacting with fellow artists during outdoor painting sessions.” (by National Gallery Singapore)

“Beginning with the early days of his practice in the 1930s, this exhibition features over 60 artworks, sketches and archival materials that highlight Lim’s mastery of outdoor watercolour landscape painting.” (by National Gallery Singapore)

“Lim’s style of painting had changed by the late 1960s. He sought to capture the modod of a scene in addition to form and texture.”
