Introducing Sue Gray @suegrayart, the artist behind ‘36x63’!

Sue Gray’s interest in objects began when she studied textile design and started her working career as a magazine stylist in Cape Town, South Africa. Her keenness to collect and arrange things gives her unique eyes to seek the beauty within the ordinary and beyond. Sue's personal space has transitioned naturally onto the canvas as an ever-changing still life since she started her practice as a self-taught, realistic oil painter in 2001.

Introducing Brenda Tan (@hellopigu), the artist behind ‘Into The Wild’!

Brenda Tan originally started out making drawings and sculptures. Since pursuing her MA Fine Arts at LASALLE College of the Arts, she has been challenging the boundaries set between art and illustration through her work. Most recently, she developed a moniker HelloPigu, following the life of her character, a longevity peach bun called PiguBao, to document everyday occurrences of adulting. Moving out of the realms of digital illustrations, HelloPigu is taking full form by foraying into the physical world. Her recent works include murals at Urban Design Festival (2018) and The Substation (2019), an interactive installation at Night Festival (2019) as well as the debut of her canvas paintings at Ultrasupernew Gallery (2021).

‘Into The Wild’ runs till Sunday, 3 July 2022.

Introducing Johann M Fauzi (@m.f_johann), one of the artists for ‘Emak Kata Jangan Jadi Seniman’!

Fauzi is not only an artist. He is also an art collector whose collection spans the 13th to the 19th centuries ranging from paintings, tapestries, prints, bronzes, ceramics, lighting, and furniture.

Through his interest in collecting he began exploring the mediums of painting, printmaking, and sculpture which he connects with classical canons of art thanks to a formal training at Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts. Light and perspective are some of the elements he has chosen to work with, focusing on oil painting as a means to explore image-making. Fauzi currently focuses his research on the ideas of conceptual framing of Singapore landscape within the intersections of Classical and Romantic periods, as well as questioning ‘otherness’ and the position of a Malay person in Singapore.

‘Emak Kata Jangan Jadi Seniman’ runs till 17 July 2022, Sunday.

Tomorrow, 18 June 2022, drop by our gallery to meet the artists Johann M Fauzi and Masuri Mazlan from ‘Emak Kata Jangan Jadi Seniman’, as well as HelloPigu from ‘Into The Wild’!

'Emak Kata Jangan Jadi Seniman' [Mum said don’t be an artist] is a duo exhibition featuring Singaporean artists @m.f._johann and @masuri_mazlan. This show features large-scale realistic oil paintings and intimate abstract sculptures that explore identity, representation, and embodied memory. In the pursuit of individuality, a memory of rejection inspired the curatorial premise.

‘Into The Wild’ is a solo exhibition by @hellopigu (also known as Brenda Tan). This show follows the light-hearted adventure of PiguBao as it injects fun into everyday occurrences, navigating through humorous slice of life scenarios that are simultaneously relatable and witty. Spread across episodes, the series of artworks in the exhibition explores themes of self-care, reconnecting with oneself, and disconnecting from technology and fate.

‘Emak Kata Jangan Jadi Seniman’ runs till 17 July 2022, Sunday and ‘Into The Wild’ runs till 3 July 2022, Sunday.

(These two exhibitions are part of the three exhibitions at Art Porters Gallery that are part of Pink Fest 2022.)

For Pink Fest 2022, Art Porters Gallery brings Sue

For Pink Fest 2022, Art Porters Gallery brings Sue Gray back to 63 Spotts, the glorious pop up space right next to the main gallery at 64 Spottiswoode Park Road.

This year, we are working together with friends from ThirtySix Brewlab and Smokehouse to present Sue Gray’s most recent addition to the bottles series, bottle #15, The Straits Pale Ale, with a series of derivative giclée print series in five assorted versions, titled Bottles #15a, b, c, d, and e.

This year, Sue Gray and Art Porters are also launching the new Bottle #11b, the hand-finished pink Singha bottle print. To raise awareness for Action for Aids Singapore (AfA), 10% of proceeds from the sale of the 24 editions of Bottles #11b will be donated to AfA, and the artist proof will be auctioned fully to the benefit of AfA.

Bottles, Sue Gray’s first solo exhibition was part of Pink Fest 2021, presenting paintings of bottles in all kinds of shapes, sizes, colours, content… Much like the diversity of the human condition.

Art Porters is proud to announce 'Emak Kata Jangan Jadi Seniman' [Mum said don’t be an artist], a duo exhibition featuring Singaporean artists Johann M Fauzi and Masuri Mazlan. This show features large-scale realistic oil paintings and intimate abstract sculptures that explore identity, representation, and embodied memory. In the pursuit of individuality, a memory of rejection inspired the curatorial premise.

The exhibition will pry into Johann M Fauzi’s current research that investigates the conceptual framing of Singapore’s landscape within the intersections of the Classical and Romantic periods, as well as ‘otherness’ and the position of the Malay in Singapore.

In contrast, Masuri Mazlan’s central practice focuses on the affective and transformative potential of common industrial materials, as sculptural media. His sculptural objects taps on polyurethane, gypsum, and silicone to investigate identity politics, queer abstraction, as well as drawing inspirations from the domestic sphere as a destabilising site.

(This is one of the three exhibitions at Art Porters Gallery that are part of Pink Fest 2022.)

'Emak Kata Jangan Jadi Seniman’ opens on 1 June and runs till 3 July 2022.

We are all human. In response to Guillaume Levy-La

We are all human. In response to Guillaume Levy-Lambert’s Cosmic siblingS project, Sue Gray created Diptych 1, a painting of a Tiger Balm bottles combined with a statement on another canvas expressing our common humanity that shines despite our apparent differences. Sue celebrates the equal and extraordinary beauty within all humans. This statement is a play on Sue Gray’s original statement which was presented during the exhibition Bottles at Art Porters in 2021.
