Urban Backyard 《都市 :後院》- Recent Works by Lim Jia Qi 林加淇

iPreciation is delighted to present Urban : Backyard, a solo exhibition by Singapore contemporary emerging artist, Lim Jia Qi (b. 1997, Singapore).

Urban : Backyard, as its name suggests, is a survey of nature in the urban landscape. Touted as a Garden City, and now moving towards becoming a City in Nature, Singapore earned the name through its assertive push to go green everywhere and anywhere on the sunny island. This tiny land without natural resources is ironically packed with lush greenery deliberately reserved or created to complement the unabated growth of high-rise architecture in the metropolis. As urban living and nature get more and more intertwined, the line between urban living and nature gets blurred. In fact, they are so interweaved that sometimes, we conveniently forget about them or even take them for granted – the intentionally scattered trees dotting our neighbourhood, the freshly pruned shrubbery along our pathways, and the creepers and ferns that have found a home on our HDB walls. Lim and her series of woodblocks are set to remind us of the fascinating green plot ratio inhabiting our densely populated environment.
