Description

Melisa Teo’s highly anticipated photography exhibition, Two Rivers, inspired by her eponymous book, will debut on the historic Anderson Bridge, from April 23 to May 31, 2025. The exhibition then moves to VivoCity’s Waterfront Promenade and Southwest Boulevard from June 4 to July 4, 2025.

Two Rivers is a captivating exploration of life, memory and dreams, featuring images from the Singapore River and the Seine River in Paris, France, and is the first exhibition to be held on Anderson Bridge.

A joint initiative supported by the French and Singapore governments to commemorate 60 years of diplomatic relations, the exhibition is presented by the French Embassy as part of the vOilah! France-Singapore Festival, and supported by Singapore’s Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth, National Arts Council, National Parks Board and Land Transport Authority, who provided the unique setting of Anderson Bridge.

This National Monument, located at the mouth of the Singapore River, is a powerful symbol of the connection between nations, perfectly complementing Melisa’s exploration of human interconnectedness.

The historical significance of this exhibition also underscores the longstanding relationship between Singapore and France, as we work towards a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership to further strengthen our ties.

Following its presentation on Anderson Bridge, the Two Rivers exhibition will move to VivoCity, Singapore’s largest shopping mall. Mapletree Investments is the project’s Diamond Partner, who has generously supported expanding the access to Melisa’s evocative work.

During this time, she will host an artist talk at library@harbourfront, sharing her creative journey. A children’s art competition, inspired by the exhibition’s theme, will further engage the community.
