Singapore Art Week puts women artists from the region to the fore

Singapore Art Week (SAW) this year spotlights women artists from Southeast Asia through multiple initiatives, including the release of the book *You Are Seen: Women’s Contemporary Art Practice in Southeast Asia* and the exhibition *Fear No Power: Women Imagining Otherwise* at the National Gallery Singapore (NGS). The book, published by Yeo Workshop, and the exhibition, featuring five trailblazing artists such as Amanda Heng and Imelda Cajipe-Endaya, reflect a concerted push to elevate female voices in the region. Audrey Yeo, president of the Art Galleries Association Singapore (AGAS), calls it a “big women’s moment,” while collector and author Krystina Lyon notes the varied challenges women artists face across Southeast Asia, from censorship to conservative social norms.
