Fern Wong, a self-taught artist with Down syndrome, captivates with her intricate patterns and vibrant colors inspired by nature. The “Natural Geometry” exhibition showcases her drawings and papercut techniques, highlighting the natural world’s inherent patterns, from tree branches to crystal formations. Each piece reflects her intuitive understanding and meticulous attention to detail, inviting viewers to appreciate nature’s complexity and the joy of creative expression. Wong’s art embodies the harmony and interconnectedness of all living things.
About ART:DIS
ART:DIS exists to serve and create opportunities for persons with disabilities in the arts. By adopting the definition used within Singapore’s Enabling Masterplan, this means we are committed to enabling, empowering and engaging persons whose prospects of securing, retaining and advancing in education and employment are substantially reduced as a result of physical, sensory and/or intellectual disabilities.
As one of the few social service agencies (SSAs) in Singapore that accepts students or artists with physical, sensory and/or intellectual disabilities, this means we have differentiated approaches to learning, training and collaborating which are adapted to suit the students’ and artists’ accessibility needs.
