SininGapor is a loose collective of Singapore-based Filipino artists united by sporadic weekend meetings over good coffee, good food, cool toys, booze. Oh, and art. "Sining" is the Filipino word for art, while "Gapor" is a colloquial term that most Filipinos use to refer to Singapore. Merging the two words represent how we relate our identities, ideas, and crafts as Filipino artists to our collective/personal experiences in this island nation.
About Us
SininGapor is a loose collective of individuals who are all full-time employees in the creative field such as advertising, computer graphics, mass media, photography, and design. They use painting, mixed media and photography to express their own take on the Philippine diaspora and how the confluence of different cultures affect their identity as Filipinos in a foreign land. Since its inception on 2008, the group had held three major group exhibitions and had conducted art workshops in support of a church community. The group holds monthly art sessions as a way to interact and constantly hone their skills in art-making.
