As a tribute to 45 years of nationhood, local artist May Oon has come up with an exhibition of artworks based on historical photographs of Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew. She uses various media, including charcoal, oils and pastels, uncannily capturing the public persona and essence of the "Father of Modern Singapore". The artworks are also on sale. The name of the gallery, Evil Empire, on 48 Niven Road (off Wilkie Road and Mackenzie Road) is just a coincidence.
