This visit brings you into 2 spaces filled with art to live with everyday. Housed within a conservation shophouse, the ground floor space is the clinic where the one half of the art collecting couple works, and the upstairs is a residential space where they host visiting friends and work colleagues. Both spaces house a selection from this deeply personal collection. Over the past two decades, John and Cheryl Chia have quietly assembled a collection of more than 300 works across painting, sculpture, photography, video and installation. Driven by an affinity for idea-led art, their collecting is rooted in intellectual curiosity, emotional resonance, and a shared desire to support artists as cultural provocateurs. Clinic visitors and house guests are not natural aficionados of contemporary art, but the experience of filling their space with art has confirmed for them that good contemporary art speaks a universal message to people from all walks of life, and invites further reflection and investigation.
