Your MOTHER gallery

Your MOTHER gallery was established on 31 December 2004 to provide artists in Singapore an alternative and affordable art space; originally set in the tiny kitchen of the residence of artists Jeremy Hiah and lina adam, it is now in the main hall. The artists live and work here since August 2002. Both artists are members of The Artists Village, Singapore.

This gallery was inspired when Jeremy Hiah traveled to Europe in the years 1998 to 2000, there he met many artists and seen art spaces which are alternative, in people's kitchens, abandoned apartments, public spaces like corridors or under a bridge and even bombed buildings were converted to art spaces. Some of these art spaces were ephemeral and temporary.

The location of Your MOTHER gallery is situated at the crossroads of Jalan Besar and Little India providing a colorful, exciting and spicy atmosphere, just across the street is the famous Sungei Road thieves and flea market.

The people in this area are a mixed of backpackers, tourists, immigrant workers, locals looking for cheap buys and a cultural experience, pimps, hustlers, trendys looking out for the new originals, old timers, residents and much more.

We have limited resources and artists are encouraged to be experimental with this humble space.
