Play Across Our Homes

By Ross Chong Jia Xu, MINDS Regional Hub (Woodlands)

"Play Across Our Homes" depicts the lively, familiar sight of HDB flats, where every window and corridor holds its own story and colour. While each household is unique, the shared building structure brings a feeling of unity and belonging. Bright hues and everyday details like laundry, plants and flags reflect the diversity and energy of the community. It shows that play and connection happen naturally in these shared spaces, bridging neighbours across all ages and backgrounds. Ross celebrates how simple interactions build harmony, care, and togetherness within our homes through his art.

About

Living with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Ross discovered his passion for art at the age of seven through self-directed experimentation with various drawing and painting materials. Without formal training, he developed strong observational skills and a careful attention to detail. After joining ART:DIS, he further expanded his practice through weekly art lessons. A dedicated artist, Ross draws daily and creates an annual hand-drawn calendar for family and friends, while exploring hand lettering, graphic design and minimalist illustration.
