Living History : The Charm of Singapore Peranakan House II

By Leong Sijun, Artzillions

"Living History: The Charm of Singapore Peranakan House II", drawn by Sijun. He was attracted to the heritage patterns in the tiles and windows, inspired by Peranakan and traditional shophouses. These complex details carry the weight of history and culture, reminding viewers of the generations who lived in these spaces. In this painting, Sijun commemorates the beauty of everyday places and the emotions they carry. Home transcends mere walls – it's about warmth, traditions, and shared moments.
