In "Rex Pop," SH Ong masterfully transforms a historical photograph into a vibrant and dynamic Pop Art piece, celebrating the iconic Rex Cinema on Mckenzie Road in the 1960s. The artwork pulses with energy, as the cinema's classic facade is re-imagined with a dazzling color palette and bold, graphic lines. The bustling street scene below comes alive with a sense of motion, with classic cars and stylishly dressed pedestrians rendered with a playful, comic-book aesthetic. Ong's skillful use of contrast and texture, including subtle Ben-Day dots, bridges the gap between past and present, offering a fresh, modern perspective on a beloved Singapore landmark and a cherished moment in the city's history. This piece is a brilliant homage that invites the viewer to experience a bygone era with a sense of vibrant nostalgia.
