On this podcast, Simon Lim puts the spotlight on Louisa Raj, a self-taught Singapore artist who left a career in finance and technology to pursue art full-time. Louisa will be making her debut solo art exhibition titled "RICE IS NICE" at WASUKA ART in Singapore from January 17th until February 15th 2026. Find out about the inspiration behind Louisa's artworks. What is the metaphor behind her rice packaging hyperrealistic artworks?
In a very practical society as Singapore, one needs to muster enough self-belief and courage to pursue a road that's less well-travelled. Why did Louisa choose this unconventional path in life? She speaks about self-reinvention and self-expression.
Louisa Raj has been shortlisted twice for the UOB Painting of the Year Awards and was commissioned by the Singapore Tourism Board for the Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix.
This upcoming exhibition "RICE IS NICE" marks her first solo presentation.

ZESTRO LEOW - Zestro Leow is an innovative ceramic artist who will be presenting his works on 3D printed porcelain. He has received international recognition and commissions from the NHB and NAC for his boundary-pushing work, and has exhibited in Taiwan, Korea, China and Singapore.

SHWETA PATEL - Shweta Patel focuses on marrying deliberately simple and robust forms with high temperature gas reduction and wood firing. Magic happens in the kiln with the perfect amalgamation of fire, clay, iron speckles and oxides in the glazes - producing Shweta's unique pieces.
