Bio
Khairulddin Wahab’s (b. Singapore) paintings weave narratives drawn from cultural geography, environmental history, and post-colonialism in Singapore and Southeast Asia. Working from archival materials, found images and iconography derived from his geographic and cultural contexts, Khairulddin creates layered tableaus that allude to our historico-political encounters with the natural world.
He graduated with a BA in Fine Arts from LASALLE College of the Arts (2014) and has exhibited in local and international fairs and exhibitions, including the Jogja Biennale, SAM Contemporaries at Singapore Art Museum and Art Basel HK. He was the winner of the 2018 UOB Painting of the Year award, recipient of the inaugural National Library Creative Residency in 2021 and the 2014 Winston Oh Travel Award.
His work has been collected by public and private institutions such as the Singapore Art Museum, KADIST Foundation in Paris, and X Museum in Beijing.
