Reimagine the medical prescription through the lens of play in this series of whimsical, tactile felt artworks, created as part of an intergenerational community art project. Enjoy a dose of “Funadol” and explore “play prescriptions” inspired by participants’ personal experiences. Through shared stories and artistic expression, Pharmacy of Play gently nudges us to rethink wellbeing—framing play as a language of care across generations. No side effects—just playful invitations to care for ourselves and each other.

Every Knot a Memory, Every Thread a Vein

Artist: Adeline Loo
Year: 2025
Medium: Hand knotted fabric and yarn
LocationNg Teng Fong General Hospital, Tower B, Level 2, Arts&Health Community Art Gallery, opposite Discharge Pharmacy

Co-created with:
NTUC Health Active Ageing Centre (Bukit Panjang)
Patients of Jurong Community Hospital
Staff of Ng Teng Fong General Hospital & Jurong Community Hospital

What happens when colourful yarns, nimble hands, and a spark of imagination come together? A joyful two-part tapestry installation emerges—woven from over 180 metres of knotted ropes and yarn, handcrafted by the community, staff, and patients. These artworks are the result of a meditative, repetitive act that celebrates the therapeutic power of play and the quiet strength of self-expression. Each knot is more than a loop of thread; it is a moment, a memory—woven into a larger story of connection, care, and colour.

Year: 2025

Patients and caregivers of Jurong Community Hospital

Featuring clay sculptures, beadwork, sticker collages, and textured compositions, the exhibition reflects on memory, repetition, and the quiet power of shared experience.  Working closely with patients, the artists use playful approaches—like storytelling, beading and hands-on craft-making—to co-create vibrant series of artworks that celebrate the resilience, wisdom, humour and lived experience of pioneers. Commemorating SG 60, this exhibition stands as a tribute to them, and to the power of art in building community, healing, and remembrance.
