Aryan Arora | Seasons Without Snow: Singapore’s Petrichor

Venue: INSTINC Space, 39 Keppel Rd, #03–10 Tanjong Pagar Distripark, Singapore 089065

Opening Reception: 16 May 2025 (Fri.) 5:30PM–8:30PM

Exhibition Duration: 17 to 24 May 2025 (Wed-Fri, 1PM-7PM. Sat — Sun, 1PM-6PM)

Artist Talk: 17 May 2025, 3PM-4PM at the venue

“Seasons Without Snow: Singapore’s Petrichor” explores the ever-changing landscape of Singapore, capturing the everyday stories that define the city. In his second solo show in Singapore, Arora presents a body of work that highlights diverse, often overlooked moments, where change is constant, yet certain elements remain timeless.

Through his distinctive monochrome palette and use of latex-wrapped figures, Arora’s paintings explore the dualities of modern life — contrast between tradition and modernity, presence and absence. His abstract, faceless figures embody the hidden narratives of Singapore, drawing attention to the quiet, everyday rituals that shape the city.

The series delves into the underlying layers of urban life, reflecting on how people navigate societal roles and masks, whether at work, in personal interactions, or within their identities. The stark black and white tones underscore the balance between transition and permanence in the city’s evolving identity.

“Seasons Without Snow: Singapore’s Petrichor” is a visual exploration of the fluidity of time and the cycles of transformation that shape life in Singapore, while celebrating the enduring elements that remain constant, much like the timeless essence of petrichor — the refreshing scent of rain after a dry spell.

About the Artist:

Aryan Arora (b. 1999), born in Saharanpur, India, is a visual and performance artist currently based in Singapore. Graduating from Lasalle College of the Arts, Singapore, and holding a Fine Arts degree from Goldsmiths University, London, Aryan’s practice delves into the complexities of societal norms, human identity, and personal introspection.

Rejecting the constraints imposed by societal ideals, Aryan’s creative journey is a relentless exploration of individual expression. His work focuses on challenging the taboos entrenched in contemporary culture, employing various mediums to amplify voices often silenced or marginalized. Aryan’s past works have been displayed at renowned venues such as the Institute of Contemporary Arts Singapore, Art Outreach Singapore, Visual Arts Gallery Singapore, The Substation Gallery, Google Headquarters Singapore, and Mumbai International Airport India, among others. In addition to his intimate studio explorations, Aryan’s artistry spills onto public spaces through murals and graffiti, further extending his commitment to unraveling the complexities of societal constructs and presenting art as a form of social commentary.

For Aryan, art is not just a form of expression; it is a potent tool for communication, commentary, and catharsis. His work resonates with a yearning for authenticity and healing in a world often shrouded in masks. In every stroke and performance, Aryan Arora emerges as a steadfast advocate for the liberation of the true self, inviting viewers to embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing through art.
