Through the lens of these seven flamingos, artists explore the intricate dynamics of human relationships. The artworks reflect on the moments when we offer grace, forgiveness, and compassion, allowing for healing and reconciliation. They celebrate the beauty of vulnerability and the strength it takes to open oneself to the possibility of a second chance.
The flamingo, with its striking pink hue and elegant posture, embodies the beauty of collective strength. As social creatures, flamingos thrive in groups, relying on each other for survival and support. The presence of seven flamingos serves as a powerful metaphor for the second chances we extend to one another. Each flamingo represents a unique story of transformation, growth and the courage to embrace change.

 

Yellow Ribbon VAH

Singapore

In line with the Singapore Prison Service’s mission to rehabilitate offenders for a safer Singapore, the Visual Arts Hub (VAH) was set up in Changi Prison Complex in 2009. VAH aims to give every inmate artist a blank canvas to re-paint his life, nurture his artistic potential, encourage creative insights and facilitate a positive change in mindset. Through the visual arts programme offered at VAH, inmate artists have the opportunity to unlock their potential and contribute to the community in meaningful ways.

Yellow Ribbon Singapore is a statutory board under the Ministry of Home Affairs which helps inmates and ex-offenders rebuild their lives and lower the recidivism rate through career and skills development, with an effective aftercare support network. Through championing second chances and rehabilitating ex-offenders, Yellow Ribbon Singapore hopes to achieve a safer and more inclusive Singapore where inmates and ex-offenders are adequately supported in their rehabilitation and reintegration journey.
