S.E.A. Focus 2025: Disconnected Contemporaries 18.01.2025 — 26.01.2025

STPI – Creative Workshop & Gallery kickstarts the 2025 art calendar with a presentation of works by artists from its international residency programme, including a strong local representation of seven Singaporean and Singapore-based artists. Throughout Singapore Art Week, STPI will be participating in three highlight events: ART SG, Southeast Asia’s leading international art fair, S.E.A. Focus, a homegrown curatorial platform dedicated to Southeast Asian contemporary art, and a solo exhibition by Suzann Victor, Constellations, at STPI.

“Singapore Art Week is an invigorating moment that throws the spotlight on STPI every year, inspiring our Creative Workshop and Gallery to put our best foot forward on home ground. We are excited to share our line-up of incredible artists, with audiences across international art fair ART SG, curated regional platform S.E.A. Focus, and our very own STPI gallery space. Visitors are welcome to discover and connect with these works, which the artists made in collaboration with our Creative Workshop team during their residencies, to forge new and dynamic expressions in their practice.”

– Emi Eu, Executive Director, STPI – Creative Workshop & Gallery

At S.E.A. Focus, STPI will debut the latest works of Cultural Medallion Recipient Ong Kim Seng. Created during the artist’s STPI residency in 2024, they explore printmaking’s capacity for pictorial expressions of light and shade, through landscapes and scenes from Ong’s childhood.

The third edition of ART SG will run from 17 January to 19 January 2025, with STPI’s booth located at booth BA02. STPI is also the organiser of S.E.A. Focus, which will run from 18 January to 26 January 2025.
