The visionary architect of modern day Singapore, which became independent in 1965. A man who believed in Singapore when others did not. Harnessed social cohesion despite religious and ethnic diversity. Nurtured a Garden City decades before sustainability became a buzzword. Built an economy from scratch and made it one of the best places for businesses globally.
This piece is inspired by Singapore’s Founding Father Mr Lee Kuan Yew, the map of Singapore and the URA Master Plan colours – a tribute to the man who built a nation when there was none.
About the ‘Not Just a Little Red Dot’ collection
When someone mentions 'Singapore', what comes to mind? Despite its small land footprint, Singapore has transformed into one of the world’s most cosmopolitan cities. Over the years, iconic symbols and landmarks were created to represent Singapore in the world.
Created in Kelly's signature contemporary style, each artwork in the ‘Not Just a Little Red Dot’ collection is inspired by a national symbol or landmark in Singapore's history. The year when the symbol/landmark was created/completed or the name of the location is 'stamped' on the artwork, marking its significance.
