About
It is often said that every photograph marks the death of a moment—capturing what has already slipped into the past. Yet within the flow of daily life, amidst the passing of time, treasuring what truly matters requires intention. Photography becomes a way to pause, to return to the present, and to hold close those fleeting fragments—sweet nuggets of memory that shape our frame of thought.
Through their viewfinders, 22 imagemakers in this exhibition have each chosen to stop and claim such moments for themselves. In their own voices, they breathe, reflect, and renew—transforming the act of photographing into a process of inner connection.
This exhibition grows out of a year-long programme, POV: Photowalks, designed by photographer Benjamin Tan, who places social engagement at the heart of his practice. Over the course of a year, people from all walks of life joined the photowalks, discovering photography not only as a way of seeing the world, but also as a way of listening inward—connecting with their own frame and with moments that matter.
Alongside works from POV participants, selected responses from members of WiSSG (Women in Street Singapore) and the wider Singapore photography community further broaden this collective exploration. Together, these images form a wall of moments; shared in unison, offered in the hope of opening new doors to inspiration, and affirming a love for life, here and now.
