16 September 2021 – “As We Were” by SEED the Art Space
Pauline Gan

If you google “qualities of great art collectors”, Mike and Lou Samson tick all the boxes:
- They know their art cold – in fact, Lou has an MA in Asian Art Histories from our alma mater, LaSalle
- They engage with their communities
- They have a point of view
- They are in it for the art
- They are tastemakers
So, if the opportunity arises to see selected works from their collection, we go! Here’s a preview of As We Were, which opens today at Artspace@helutrans and runs till 17 October 2021.
Presented by SEED The Art Space, it features works by some of the big names in Southeast Asian contemporary art, as well as some promising up-and-comers. Open every day except Mondays, you can register at https://SEEDTHEARTSPACE.as.me/AsWeWere. If you’d like some guidance to the artworks, you can book a curator tour at: https://qrco.de/CuratorTourBooking.
