Hazel Lim

Hazel Lim is a visual artist with a background in painting and employs text, crafting methods, and drawings in her artistic practice. In her current research on the Aesthetics of Care, crafting techniques such as needlework and paper craft are used to investigate the utility of diagrams, image making, and color theory, whilst at the same time, interrogating the relationship of craft to the domestic and feminine.

Hazel currently leads the BA(Hons) program in the McNally School of Fine Arts, LASALLE College of the Arts, and has taken part in exhibitions showcased in Singapore, Indonesia, Korea, Ireland, Germany, Austria, US, and Vietnam. Hazel was an Associate Artist with Substation, Singapore from 2004-2012 and is one of the artists commissioned for the Singapore Biennale 2013/2014 and showed her work entitled A Botanical and Wildlife Survey at the Singapore Peranakan Museum. She recently collaborated with her partner, Andreas Schlegel on a commissioned installation work, The Oort Cloud and the Blue Mountain for The Children Biennale 2019 in The National Gallery of Singapore and the Kinderbiënnale 2021 at Groninger Museum, Netherlands, and Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden, Germany, and Singapore Art Museum: Tanjong Pagar Edition, 2022.
