On view at  : Young Lee’s (Young) latest extensive series—in which she explores themes of impermanence, memory, and the fleeting nature of human experience—come together in “All That Blossoms, All That Passes: Surreal Land”. __ In Lee’s surreal worlds, everyday objects dissolve into powerful metaphors; melting clocks trace the soft erosion of time, while vibrant, oversized blooms radiate the temporary richness of existence. Influenced by surrealist sensibilities, her compositions balance reality and imagination, inviting the viewer into immersive spaces that feel quietly uncanny. __ Visit our LOY Contemporary Art Gallery to experience “All That Blossoms, All That Passes: Surreal Land,” open through August 22.  __

Multidisciplinary artist, Wang Xiaolin (王晓林), who has made Jingdezhen, the historic capital of porcelain, his home and studio. Calling himself a “Jing Drifter,” Wang embraces the city’s centuries-old traditions while reimagining them for today. Working with delicate overglaze porcelain techniques, he creates luminous, dreamlike scenes where faceless figures, scholar’s rocks, and surreal landscapes come together.



Blending ancient palettes with contemporary sensibilities, Wang’s work reflects on identity, memory, and the tension between freedom and control in our modern lives.



Represented by LOY Contemporary Art Gallery , his debut solo exhibition, ‘Future is a Journey to the Past’, marked him as a distinctive new voice in contemporary porcelain painting. His first feature work, PangHuang (2015), received the National Arts Foundation award in China. He has exhibited at the Palace Museum in Beijing, China (2016); the 9th Gyeonggi International Ceramic Biennale in Korea (2019); and the Jingdezhen International Ceramic Art Biennale, Jingdezhen, China (2019 and 2021).

In the 1960s, as Singapore wanted to embark on an expansive urban renewal project, a UN expert delegation was engaged to make recommendations for Singapore’s urban renewal. Norwegian planner Erik Lorange divided our downtown into 17 precincts. The urban district bounded by Beach Road, Crawford Street, North Bridge Road and Jalan Sultan was designated as Precinct North 1 (N1) and would be the first large scale urban renewal.

The neighbourhood is presented in a graphic and typological and we can see the variations and similarities of the individual architecture. Together they create a rhythm of forms and types. No longer seen as an urban mass, it gives each individual architecture visibility, and the viewer an opportunity to spectate and speculate on their individual histories.

The act of surveying and archiving both gives agency by identifying the subject; yet removes personality through an act of logical categorisation.

For her first solo exhibition in Asia, Young Lee (.lee_art) presents previously unseen works from her latest oil on linen series, exploring her ongoing engagement with ephemeral nature of existence and the intimate record of a life lived in motion. Drawing from the everyday objects, clocks, flowers, windows, and domestic elements, Lee transform the abstracted and refracted on the canvas into a sanctuary- a means of exploring perception, impermanence, memory, and the fleeting nature of human experience. Young Lee received her M.F.A from the New York Academy of Art in 2020. She lives and works between West New York and Atlanta.

Sequential layering induces and explores the space. The work examines how Chinese porcelain artist Wang Xiaolin transforms the lingering anxieties of the repetitive, rhythmic, laborious, and temporal into tangible forms as the era moves collectively through a decade of dread.

-

Wang explains: ‘Within this space, transformation no longer offers solace to the physical form. We are left suspended in the friction between historical erasure and its ideological reconstruction, where time has stood still. Volatile and erratic, the body drifts to the edge of perception, shelved within a rhythmic, unending cycle of repetition. After all, there is power in repetition.’

-

Rooted in Confucian and Taoist philosophies, this ongoing series explores moral transformation and self-cultivation, where Wang’s porcelain works are crafted using this nearly obsolete technique, the themes that surface in his creations stray far from the traditional motifs popular in 17th century Chinese porcelain-painting, reflecting more contemporary concerns.

Opening soon at , “All That Blossoms, All That Passes” will present Young Lee’s (.lee_art) latest series, exploring the ephemeral nature of existence—how moments, emotions, and even identity exist in constant flux.

Young creates visual meditations inspired by Zen awareness of presence, blending surreal landscapes with symbolic objects such as clocks, totems, and exaggerated blooms. These elements explore balance within continuous change, reflecting the fluid nature of the self. Her work captures a quiet sense of wonder found in fleeting, present moments.

「BONE FLOWER」

Yuki Nara ( ) combined architectural design methods using the latest technology such as 3D CAD with the traditional techniques of Ohi ware. The Bone-like ceramic panel fragments combine like vibrant flowers, emanating a primitive vitality like the flame pottery of the Jomon period. Unlike Western architecture, the “boundary” between inside and outside is unclear in traditional Japanese architecture.

Earthen floors, verandas, open paper shoji screens.

Wind and light flow through them.

Yuki says that something new is born from these ambiguous “boundaries.”
