84-year-old Cultural Medallion recipient and NAFA alumnus Siew Hock Meng showcases close to 40 works in a retrospective exhibition spanning the 1990s to the 2020s alongside new works. Siew’s practice goes beyond mere representation; he uses composition, imagination and personal interpretation to transform his observations into images that communicate ideas and emotions that reflect the real world and broader human experience.
