Uniquely Singapore

By Kevin Lim Guoyang, Singapore Association for Mental Health

This artwork brings together CHIJMES, a historic church hall, and the graceful Sultan Mosque in Kampong Glam — two beloved places where visitors gather, whether for quiet prayer or to soak in the rich heritage. In the background, the vibrant Marina Bay skyline rises, a symbol of Singapore’s dynamic urban spirit and thriving economy. Surrounding these landmarks are flowers bursting with colour, a heartfelt tribute to Singapore’s identity as a peaceful, serene, garden city. This artwork displays a delicate balance of tradition, faith, and modern life, all flourishing together.
