Today marks the eighth anniversary of Art Porters

‘Into The Wild’, a solo exhibition by @hellopi

‘Into The Wild’, a solo exhibition by @hellopigu (also known as Brenda Tan), is now open at Art Porters Gallery!

Meet PiguBao, HelloPigu's signature character, a longevity peach bun who has achieved sentience. Carried to earth from the heavens by a strong gust of wind, PiguBao awoke from its deep slumber and embarked on a journey to discover more about the world and the meaning of life.

‘Into The Wild’ 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.

Get ready for a dive, into the wild!

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

Art Porters is proud to announce Causal Curiosity,

Art Porters is proud to announce Causal Curiosity, Jamie Teo's first solo exhibition with us!

In Causal Curiosity, Teo presents a new series of abstract paintings that explore 'mental images' as the subject of causality, drawn from the artist's personal experiences in the past year.

Causal refers to the relationship between cause and effect, and is also a play on casual curiosity, where Teo documented transient moments that held her attention, questioning her attraction towards certain mental images.

Teo's current practice expands beyond her fascination with abstraction within the world of images; the subjective and objective perception of colours. In addition to masterfully blending oil paints into seamless gradients, Teo blends in real-world everyday subjects that she observed, adding layered, contextual narratives to her paintings, examining the abstract and the real.

Navigating between the openness of abstraction and the artist's own emotions, Causal Curiosity opens up a sense of vulnerability to the viewers and offers them a more personal observation into her practice.

Join us for the official opening on Saturday, 16 April, from 2 to 6 pm, in the presence of the artist. Walk-ins are welcome, no registration is required.

Every year today on the 8th of March the whole world comes together to celebrate women's courage to break boundaries and make improvements in all aspects of life. This day is also a reminder that there are still gaps to completely fill. It encourages women all over the world to raise their voices and fight!

A team of volunteers from a major tech company is inspired by @c.k.koh_archive ‘s Box Boy and the story of 'What Is Your Dream?' For International Women's Day, volunteers from that company are taking the book to draw inspiration and to create 'what Box Girl's dream might be'. All resources of inspiration will be shared with @playeum to use as materials for their work with children and their adults. Some samples already collected appear in this post.

Enjoy CK’s illustrated book ‘What Is Your Dream’ on our link in bio.

Let us #BreakTheBias together with Box Girl! 🥊💥

Happy #InternationalWomensDay2022 everyone!

Meet Sam Lo @skl0_ , one of the featured artists in "Going Places”

Sam Lo/ ‘SKL0’ (b. 1986) is a trans non-binary visual artist based in Singapore with humble beginnings as an urban artist. In their formative years, their intrigue with the concept of culture and bold execution in some of their earliest forays in street art dubbed them the "Sticker Lady", a nickname lovingly given by the city in reference to the saga that was birthed from their work in the streets. Since then, their practice has grown to be reflective of their personal journey and beliefs - a non-subscriber to traditional notions of a dedicated style, theme or visual language, they believe that the human psyche has multiple dimensions that make us complex, layered individuals which enable us to vastly explore and express a multitude of motivations in this shared human experience. As such, their works explore different themes across various mediums from large scale spray-painted murals to delicately hand-sculpted sculptures, each tackling a different story through the artist’s lens.

Meet Alex Face @alexfacebkk, one of the featured artists in "Going Places”

Alex Face (Patcharapon Tangruen) is a Thai graffiti artist who maneuvers in the public space to provoke thoughts from city dwellers. His street art has grown boundless in public areas of Thailand as much as in other cities overseas. His significant fame came in 2009 when he has become a father of a daughter, concerned about the becoming world in which she will live. Alex introduced a three-eyed child dressed in a ragged rabbit suit, inspired by his daughter, Mardi, who has sometimes her eyes closed, and gives passerby a sense of weary vulnerability and wry look.

Meet Ernest Zacharevic @ernestzacharevic , one of the featured artist in "Going Places”

Ernest “ZACH” Zacharevic is a Lithuanian-born artist combining fine art techniques with a passion for creating outdoor interventions. Experimentation lies at the heart of Ernest's style, with the only constant being the dedication to his ever-changing concepts. With ideas leading the way, he removes the limitation of artistic boundaries; moving freely between the disciplines of oil painting, stencil and spray, installation and sculpture.

In the public realm, Ernest is interested in the interaction of murals and the urban landscape, with concepts arising as part of a spontaneous response to the environment, the community and culture.

Art Porters proudly announces our upcoming group e

Art Porters proudly announces our upcoming group exhibition, ‘Going Places; travels of the mind, spirit and heart’, featuring street artists from the region: Alex Face (Thailand), Ernest Zacharevic (Malaysia), Sam Lo (Singapore) and Yip Yew Chong (Singapore).

The familiar ‘frames’ the artists used to work on towering walls around the globe were disrupted due to the outset of the pandemic, yet not totally. The artists have expressed that while the physical norms are curbed, their philosophies carry on even further. Indeed, the term ‘travel’ becomes a metaphysical one. The retreat from the conventional frame, movement or campaign to their personal caves grants them a place to meditate, reflect and deconstruct on the current crisis. This new lease of life accommodates these regional household names to seek the ‘right’ frame of mind – in their respective psyches, practices, and possibilities.

The works of Alex Face, Ernest Zacharevic, Sam Lo and Yip Yew Chong, sponged, funneled, strained, and sieved from their usual mammoth forms are gathered in a unique portal. The place serves as a port for the artists as well as beholders to harbor reflections and hopes; to nurture an exchange whilst seeking a change in the light of the pandemic. Absorbing, channeling, filtering, and refining seem to be the common thread (not threat) in this congregation. While the air of uncertainty still lingers over, soaking in these impressionable ‘travels’ is important and critical.

Please drop us a DM with your full name and email if you are interested to receive the e-catalogue of the exhibition as soon as it is ready.
