Visual Arts Centre and Utterly Art proudly present Welcome Home! Artists Return to 20B Mosque Street, a group art exhibition that reunites artists long associated with Utterly Art within the very building that once housed the gallery for over a decade. Now reimagined as an inviting new art space combining a retail art gallery and an art studio under Visual Arts Centre, 20B Mosque Street opens its doors not only to the public, but also to its artistic past.
For twelve years from 2012 to 2024, 20B Mosque Street served as a pivotal location for Utterly Art, one of Singapore’s longest-running independent art galleries known for championing emerging and mid-career Southeast Asian artists. Many collectors, artists, and art enthusiasts fondly recall the space as a site of discovery — where new talents were first encountered and creative friendships forged. With Visual Arts Centre now taking up residence, the building enters a renewed chapter, welcoming Singapore’s arts community back to a familiar address in Chinatown’s historic district.
The first exhibition Welcome Home! features a total of twenty artists, with works by Andre Tan, Melissa Teo, Nathalie Laoue, William Sim, Aaron Gan amongst others, bringing together a diverse multi-generational roster of Utterly Art’s artists, many of whom have participated in solo or group exhibitions at the venue. Through painting, printmaking, works on paper, and mixed media, the exhibition showcases both signature styles and newer directions in their practices, mapping the artistic growth that has unfolded since they first exhibited at 20B Mosque Street.
