A decade has passed since the departure of Singapore’s founding father, Mr. Lee Kuan Yew. In 2015, INSTINC commemorated SG50 with remembering LKY, a heartfelt tribute exhibition featuring ten artists reflecting on his enduring legacy. Now, in 2025, as Singapore celebrates SG60, we come together once more to honour his vision, resilience, and the profound impact he left on our nation and beyond.
10 Years: Remembering LKY 十年：怀念李光耀 is a reflection on time, progress, and the lasting relevance of Mr. Lee’s principles. Through the lens of contemporary artists, this exhibition revisits his influence—not just as a historical figure but as a guiding force shaping our present and future.
A theme of this exhibition is Mr. Lee’s visionary Garden City concept—his belief that Singapore should not only be a thriving economic hub but also a lush, green sanctuary where nature and urban development coexist in harmony. His dedication to transforming Singapore into a city of parks and greenery shaped the very landscape we live in today. Just as he planted the seeds—both literal and metaphorical—for future generations, this exhibition explores how his vision continues to define Singapore’s identity.
As we celebrate SG60, this exhibition is not just an act of remembrance but a dialogue between past and present, urging us to reflect on how we continue to uphold and reinterpret the values Mr. Lee instilled.
A tribute. A reflection. A call to remember.
