The pinkish hue of the building catches and reflects the near-blinding glow of the evening sun. Once home to bustling hawkers and workers of diverse ethnic backgrounds, these streets were among the busiest in the city. Today, the shophouses, rich in history and architectural charm, are among the few that have been carefully preserved, standing firm amidst the rapid pace of urban change.

About

As the only son, Tan Khee Huat was expected to take over his family’s drink stall business. However, in 1993, a traffic accident left him paralysed from the chest down, altering the future he had once envisioned. With the unwavering support of his wife and family, he adjusted to his new reality. It was through mouth painting that Khee Huat discovered a new form of self-expression, turning adversity into a source of strength. His art now reflects his journey, proving that even the most challenging circumstances can ignite creativity and a renewed sense of purpose.
