About Us

------------------------------------------

The inception of 7879 Gallery & Clayworks was a modest one – a conversation over a cuppa of coffee in a hand-crafted ceramic mug between an art educator-ceramic artist and an art collector, who both shared a common vision in making art accessible for all in Singapore.

This vision takes the form of a contemporary art gallery cum ceramic art studio practice committed to representing some of the most visionary emerging artists in the SEA region, while also providing small-group ceramic art courses - 7879 Gallery & Clayworks.

7879 Gallery & Clayworks advances its missions through its local and regional programmes — comprising exhibitions, artist projects, public commissions, institutional collaborations, and interdisciplinary craft-to-art projects. Advocating the unique power of art and ceramics in transforming lives, this belief is rooted in its founders' experience as an artist-educator and art collector by making collecting art accessible and learning ceramics affordable.

From its charming Singapore base at Little India Conservation Heritage area, 7879 hopes to support emerging Asian artists and share their visionary works with audiences in Singapore for the purpose of creating more dialogues between art and region. Beyond this mission, 7879 also want to enrich Singapore’s eyes toward broader local diversities in South East Asia.
