When local artist Justin Lee embarked on his final project for his Master’s in Fine Arts at LASALLE College of the Arts, it took him to an unexpected place – the heart of Singapore’s hawker centres, where he collected over 400 discarded tin cans of evaporated milk for a two-part installation. The work draws into focus his interest in social issues, which formed the topic of his Master’s thesis and research.

Justin is among eleven accomplished artists from seven countries who will unveil the culmination of their Master’s studies at And the rest of such things, LASALLE’s MA Fine Arts graduation exhibition by the class of 2016. Featuring multi-disciplinary works in a range of media including painting, photography, sculpture, installation and video, the exhibition highlights the intricacies and complexity of creative processes.
