Lyrical Abstraction: Works by Jeremy Sharma & Yeo Shih Yun features two young Singaporean painters with very different styles – Jeremy Sharma with oil on metal panels and Yeo Shih Yun with contemporary ink and new media. The Singapore Art Museum (SAM) has commissioned the two artists to create monumental scale painting installations in the museum.

Both the young Singaporean artists demonstrate creativity and the ability to shape seemingly conventional art techniques into witty and ironic new forms of ‘painting’. Lyrical Abstraction is a parallel exhibition held in conjunction with Seeker of Hope: Works by Jia Aili.
