| Singaporean artists I 'know' | post |
I've met a Teo Eng Seng (Mister) recently - yesterday afternoon - and when he asked me, "how many Singaporean artists do you know", with 'Singaporean' defined as 'working in Singapore', I realised I was stumped for an answer beyond a handful of names (not much more than a couple of them); more names came to me after the moment of interrogation had passed. Well, for the benefit of whoever's interested, I make a table below, in response to Mr. Teo Eng Seng's question.
| Artist | Website | Have I met that artist in person? |
|---|---|---|
| Cheong Soo Pieng | don't know | He was dead, reportedly, by the time I heard of him. So, no, I haven't. |
| Ng Eng Teng | idk | No |
| Amanda Heng | idk | A handful of years ago, at NUS Museum, where she was present
at the venue of her artwork, during which strangers had tea, |
| Max Kong | http://maxkong.com | In the year 2018, during 'ArtWalk@Wessex' |
| Frances Alleblas | https://www.francesalleblas.com/ | As with Mr. Max Kong |
| Lin Hsin Hsin | http://lhham.com.sg/ | Met at a 'curator dialog' , which took place in the year 2017 A.D., at a co-working space in Singapore. |
| Mira | http://mira-yoon.format.com | I have had the luxury of her services as an art-therapist. |
| Of course, Teo Eng Seng | idk | Met him at his gallery at 22 Marshall Road, Singapore |
| Ng Joon Kiat | http://ngjoonkiat.com/ | I've met him at events associated with other artists. Most recently, I've met him at the opening reception of an exhibition at The Private Museum |
| Yeo Siak Goon | idk | Met him at an exhibition of his works , in the year 2018 A.D., at Articulture |
| Ben Puah | idk | First met him maybe in the year 2018 A.D., at 22 Marshall Road. By the time I arrived there, he was already with Mr. Teo Eng Seng. |
