"Cathay Neon" by SH Ong explodes with the vibrant energy of 1960s Handy Road, transforming the iconic Cathay Cinema into a dazzling Pop Art masterpiece. The artwork captures the architectural grandeur of the cinema, now reimagined with a bold, almost electric palette of blues, pinks, and yellows, reflecting the vivacity of the era. Below its towering marquee, a lively street scene unfolds: people mill about, vintage cars cruise by, and the surrounding shophouses buzz with activity, all rendered with crisp outlines and dynamic comic-book-style dot patterns. Ong skillfully preserves the historical essence of the photograph while infusing it with a modern, playful spirit, making this piece a brilliant homage to a cherished landmark and a defining period in Singapore's cultural landscape.
