Our flagship series — Through the Lens · A Re-creation (看镜头 · 再创作) — a Singapore–China art exchange where photography is re-imagined as painting, and now as fired ceramic.
陶纹双城 · 艺脉相承 — 新中艺术交流展
Through the Lens II · Photography & ceramic-panel painting
The second edition moves from paper to fired ceramic panels — a "tale of two cities" in clay and glaze, carrying the art lineage of Singapore and China. This year ARTICAUSE steps up from co-organiser to organiser and curator. Dates to be confirmed.
Through the Lens — A Re-creation · China–Singapore Art Exchange 2025
The founding edition. Photographs became the source, and Chinese and Singaporean artists re-created them by hand — 110 works shown in pairs, the frame beside the canvas. Held at The Art Space, Singapore, in the year of the nation's 60th anniversary.
Photography & realist painting · courses & showcase
Where it began — the workshops and showcases that taught artists to read light through a camera before rebuilding it by hand, from civic architecture to hyper-real still life. The seed of everything Through the Lens now stands for.
Every show is a bridge — between the lens and the brush, between Singapore and China.
ARTICAUSE curates exchange as much as it curates art. Our exhibitions travel, pairing Singaporean and Chinese artists around a shared medium and a shared question: what does it mean to see?
