The Bali Project, 2001

 
 

In September 2001 four artists (Agnes Yit, Kai Lam, Jeremy Hiah and Woon-Tien) embarked on a journey to Bali, Indonesia, inspired from the discussions about the pioneer artists of Singapore (generally regarded to include Liu Kang, Chen Wen Hsi, Cheong Soo Pieng and Chen Chong Swee). It was through these four pioneer artists and their journey to Bali, which resulted the birth of modern art in Singapore (1951). 49 years later, the four contemporary artists decide to 'return' to Bali and embark on a journey to find out more about their artistic roots.
