The latest additions to the city's ever-diversifying art scene.

SATHORN 11

This art space aims to promote the work of local creative talents. It offers four private art studios for four selected contemporary artists, who can take up residency at the studio over a period of 1-3 months before their work gets showcased in its public gallery. They’ve just finalized their selection earlier this month, so it’ll be a while before the debut exhibition.
