    About the Speaker:
    Teo Eng Seng is a unique artistic force, often compared to Gerhard Richter, yet fundamentally himself. His creative journey has been profoundly shaped by his encounter with the works of Rembrandt van Rijn during his student years, particularly focusing on Rembrandt’s Self-Portraits. This encounter ignited a deep wellspring of inspiration that flows through Eng Seng’s creations.

    Drawing from Rembrandt’s late-period, characterised by introspection, tranquility, and a touch of mysticism, Eng Seng’s own work is an extension of this contemplative aesthetic. His art becomes a bridge that connects the past to the present, a testament to the enduring influence of great masters on the creative spirit.

    In tandem with the enlightening talk, a special exhibition showcasing Teo Eng Seng’s latest creations is set to be a visual feast, offering attendees a glimpse into the evolving narrative of his artistic journey.
