This striking work by Lim Tze Peng radiates with vibrant washes of gold, orange, and green, capturing the warmth and energy of old Singapore’s roadside culture. The scene unfolds before a traditional shophouse, where groups of patrons gather under makeshift awnings to enjoy food and conversation. Against the glowing sky, the rustic textures of tiled roofs, wooden shutters, and open corridors stand as enduring symbols of heritage and community. Lim’s bold use of colors, paired with expressive ink outlines, transforms a humble streetscape into a poetic celebration of life, memory, and the timeless bonds of everyday encounters.
