She has exhibited her works internationally across Southeast Asia, China, South Korea, North America and Europe.

Han was awarded the 1995 Cultural Medallion for her contribution to the arts.

Shao Jingkun was celebrated for her oil paintings and decades of contributions to art education. She graduated from the Drawing Department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts in 1954, and later taught at the Beijing Art Institute and her alma mater as an associate professor. Her artistic legacy continues through her daughter, Shao Fei, a prominent contemporary artist. Shao Jingkun’s work is admired for its refinement, depth and lasting influence on generations of Chinese painters.

Shui Tit Sing was a Chinese-born Singaporean artist celebrated for his evocative wood sculptures and dedication to art education. Trained at the Hangzhou National College of Art, he moved to Singapore in 1948 and taught at Catholic High School for nearly thirty years. Shui was active in the Society of Chinese Artists and participated in regional art tours with the Ten Men Art Group. From 1968, he focused on teak wood carving, creating works that portray everyday life with sincerity, humanism and clarity of form.

Tan Choh Tee is a Singapore-based painter celebrated for his impressionist oil paintings that capture vanishing streetscapes and still life with sensitivity and nostalgia. Trained at Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts under pioneers of the Nanyang Style, he has spent decades documenting Singapore’s urban landscape while travelling across Asia, Europe, and North America. Tan has held numerous solo and group exhibitions internationally, with works collected by major museums and auction houses.
