Vivian Liu

刘懿婕 — artist, curator, and founder of ARTICAUSE 艺客艺课.

"Art is a universal language. My work is about broadening horizons — and giving everyone a way to say the things words cannot."

Vivian Liu (刘懿婕) is a Singapore-based artist and curator, and the founder of ARTICAUSE (艺客艺课) — an art house that unites a creative community (艺客) with an art education programme (艺课).

Through the flagship Through the Lens · A Re-creation exchange, she pairs the photographer's eye with the painter's hand — teaching artists to read light through a camera before rebuilding it by hand. What starts as a photograph of a place ends as a painting, and now a fired ceramic panel, of a feeling.

As a curator she builds bridges. Her Singapore–China exchanges bring both communities around a shared medium and a shared question — what does it mean to truly see? For this year's edition, Vivian steps up from co-organiser to organiser and curator, an upgrade in both responsibility and brand.

The practice

See it through the lens. Feel it in the heart. Say it with the brush.

镜头看,心感受,画笔来表达

Every ARTICAUSE work moves through three stages — the observed, the felt, and the made. Technology helps us see how light and shadow shape an image; the hand gives it back its soul.

It is a way of working, and of teaching, that welcomes everyone — the seasoned photographer, the first-time painter, the curious. There is no single right way to make art. There is only your way.
