Teo Eng Seng: We’re Happy. Are You Happy?

Immerse yourself in highly emotive creative expressions by Cultural Medallion recipient and pioneer artist Teo Eng Seng at National Gallery Singapore’s Teo Eng Seng: We’re Happy. Are You Happy? – the largest and most in-depth survey on the multidisciplinary artist to date. Featuring close to 70 artworks that respond to global social-political events of the mid-20th century, visitors can peek into Teo’s own lived experiences and his contributions to the local visual arts scene.

From 6 September 2024 to 2 February 2025, visitors are invited to explore Teo’s honest and witty negotiation between self and society. Teo transforms everyday materials into vibrant works of art, embedding humour and irony into his socially engaged practice. His creations, full of spontaneous and vivid compositions, reflect his tongue-in-cheek takes on personal and broader social events.
