SIMON NG
Simon Ng (b. 1974, Singapore) lives and works in Singapore. Initially trained as a graphic designer, Ng turned to painting at the age of 30. Influenced by European Existentialist painters, his paintings often include portraits, figurative and narrative subjects, these play out like incomplete sentences, providing little references to prior events or what may follow.

He was a recipient of the Winston Oh’s Travel Award in 2008 and the Winston Oh’s Postgraduate Fine Art Research Fund in 2012. Works by the artist are privately collected in Stockholm, Oslo, and Singapore. He is currently a part-time lecturer at Lasalle College of the Arts in Singapore.
