in which one would not expect to see art.
Why
* To bring contemporary art to the wider community.
* To expose the community to art other than traditional painting, etc.
* To encourage an understanding between viewers and contemporary artists in
Singapore.
*To provide artists from LASALLE-SIA with:
more opportunities for their work to work to be viewed,
and a foundation to sustain and pursue their arts practice.

LASALLE-SIA graduates and practitioners from the Faculty of Visual Arts.
