We would like to invite you to a private artist talk about “Changing China: The Defining Years” on 21st June 7pm, featuring work by two Singapore photographers, Chua Chin Hon and How Hwee Young, who have documented the country’s social, physical and cultural transformation in recent years. The event will start by a tour of exhibition and followed by an open Q&A; session by Hwee Young and Chin Hon in which they will share more about their work and their experiences in China.

The rise of China is one of the most contentious stories of our times. The complex changes involved – from the drastic renewal of the country’s cities and the countryside, to Beijing’s new-found technological prowess and its assertiveness on the global stage – defy easy explanation, and have often divided global opinion. This exhibition gives a perspective from the ground up, as seen by two Singaporean photographers who have witnessed China’s transformation over the past 15 years.

In their first major showing in Singapore, Chua Chin Hon and How Hwee Young focus on the changing lives of the ordinary Chinese caught up in this wave of change. Their photographs also showcase the remarkable transformation of the country’s landscape, which has been reshaped by rapid urbanisation, ambitious engineering projects and global showcases like the Beijing Olympics.

We invite two Singapore photographers Chua Chin Hon and How Hwee Young who have documented the social, physical and cultural transformation of China in recent years. to discuss.
