This inspiration in brought into the contemporary Southeast Asian context of Singapore, where the idiosyncrasies of diverse ethnic cultures are constantly being blended and reinvented. ’Whiteness’ is denoted as a new purism resulting from the confluence of a collective consciousness – the distillation of the multiplicity facets of Southeast Asian creativity and sensibilities.
NAFA, since its founding in 1938, has been an experimental ground where Western painting techniques have combined with local and regional subjects through the ’Nanyang Style’. This year’s graduation show is an extension of this same spirit of experimentation.
