  <h1 class="post-title">Singaporean artists I 'know'</h1>
  <time datetime="2019-01-25T00:00:00+00:00" class="post-date">25 Jan 2019</time>
  <p>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.</p>
