We've been on the QT for a while but that's only because we've been busy putting together a brand new EYE ZONE exhibition. Launching tomorrow at #ArtScience the exhibition is a curated selection of artwork from Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Japan and Korea.

Following the successful run of the Prudential Eye Awards Finalists exhibition, the Prudential Eye Zone launches tomorrow at ArtScience Museum as a curated selection of works from the thriving scenes of Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia and Singapore. The exhibition is co-curated by Korean pop sensation T.O.P. in his curatorial debut, and features 19 works of art. Check it out on the next Free Day - 6 April!

The Prudential Eye Zone is a curated selection of works by 17 contemporary artists from Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia and Singapore. These South-East Asian countries all have thriving art scenes and the exhibition features works that range across video and digital art, installation, sculpture, painting and photography.
A poetic sensibility runs through many of these exhibits, from the constantly shifting imagery of ‘Flowers and People –Dark’ by Japanese Collective teamLab to the towering scuplture of Korean artist Seokyoung Kang through to the almost abstract paintings of Indonesian painter Christine Ay Tjoe. In other works, notably by Singaporean artist Donna Ong and Indonesian artist Bagus Pandega, lo-fi technology is harnessed to evocative ends. Social and political issues are subtly raised in the photographs of Malaysian artist Sherman Ong and more directly addressed in the work of Japanese artists Chim?Pom.
The Prudential Eye Zone, co-curated by Honor Harger, Serenella Ciclitira, YoungJoo Lee and Korean musician T.O.P. demonstrates the diversity of contemporary art being made in Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia and Singapore. The exhibition invites viewers to tease out both links between the works of artists from these countries as well as different local inflections and nuances.
The exhibition runs 3rd April to 28th June, 2015 at the Arts Science Museum in Singapore.
