Synopsis:
In collaboration with OCBC, and as part of Singapore Art Week and the upcoming Chinese New Year celebrations, Art Outreach will present a pop-up of its latest exhibition series, Off the Wall, at OCBC Bank in Wisma Atria's lifestyle branch, which integrates an art gallery with curated offerings.
Off the Wall is a sustainable art exhibition series featuring artists live-painting murals at Art Outreach. These murals are subsequently transformed into fine art prints for public sale, with proceeds supporting the artists and Art Outreach's non-profit work. The inaugural edition titled Modern Wisdoms was curated by Zarina Muhammad and featured artists ANTZ, Chris Chai and Lewis Choo from October to November 2023.
The pop-up will feature 15 works by ANTZ, Chris Chai and Lewis Choo from the inaugural edition, which offer imaginative interpretations of Chinese folklore, popular literature, and iconography, inviting fresh perspectives on cultural motifs transmitted through generations, including Journey to the West ⻄游记 and the legend of Nezha 蓮花太子哪吒. Visitors can view and purchase a wide selection of artworks, including limited-edition hand-embellished prints.
