Turning Points III

Now in its third year at Singapore Art Week, Turning Points III brings together five artists with disabilities whose works capture pivotal moments of artistic transformation. Each piece reflects a turning point where adversity sparks reinvention and exploration leads to new creative horizons.

In this exhibition, Aaron Yap will show clay animal figurines, Chong Yap Qing will pay homage to his mother’s recipes in still-life studies, Hugh Lee will present an abstract and architectural series of paintings, Kenji Teo will present anime-inspired artworks and Zack Ling will show a series of functional ceramic wares. These are the output from a year of mentorships with mentor artists Lewis Choo, Mary Bernadette Lee, Joshua Yang, Tristan Lim, and Kim Whye Lee.

Curated by John Tung, the exhibition offers a tapestry of resilience, adaptability, and introspection, inviting audiences to witness the creativity and complexity of change in an artist’s journey.
