Welcome to Padang Spotlights! These special episodes are dedicated to unearthing our archives to bring to life the rich narratives of Southeast Asian artists and art spaces. Each spotlight tackles a thought-provoking question posed by a researcher and features new exclusive interviews that illuminate the lives and legacies of prolific artists.
In this spotlight, Gallery curator Cheng Jia Yun continues her research journey following her curation of well-loved Singaporean artist Chng Seok Tin’s exhibition Drawn Through a Press (2021). Through intimate conversations with artists Tan Sock Fong, Dahlia Osman, Chen Shitong, and archivist Koh Nguang How, Jia Yun delves deeper into the impact of Chng’s workand how her collaborative spirit has allowed the printmaking community in Singapore to thrive.
As an added bonus, listen out for the harmonica melodies by the artist, which she performed for her student Dahlia Osman’s birthday celebration!
