Celebrate the National Gallery Singapore’s 10th anniversary with curators Shujuan Lim and Jennifer Lam, the creative minds behind "Dalam Collection: Where Ink Tides Meet." This exhibition, running until 16 November 2025, showcases over 50 ink works—many on public view for the first time—spanning more than a century of artistic expression. From Khoo Seok Wan’s delicate orchids to Hong Zhu An’s "Idle Thoughts," the collection bridges tradition and innovation, spotlighting 19 Singaporean artists among a total of 31.
In this Singapore Home Brew Segment on the “Saturday Mornings Show” with host Glennvan Zutphen and co-host Neil Humphreys, we explore why ink was chosen as the medium to launch the Gallery’s new Dalam Collection series, and how curatorial decisions were shaped by deep research across Southeast Asia and beyond. Shujuan and Jennifer share insights into the exhibition’s themes, the evolving role of ink in contemporary art, and what visitors can expect to take away from this immersive experience that gives a reflection on heritage, identity, and artistic evolution.
