OUR STORY


#BUILDECK           
Claim a permanent building for photography arts.



DECK is an arts centre for photography founded in 2014 on the collective effort of a group of passionate artists, designers, public members, and like-minded people. DECK’s first container-building at 120A Prinsep Street was made possible because of the goodwill shown towards it by those who shared our vision for an independent art space.

Today, DECK enters a new phase of growth to build a brick and mortar arts building for photography in Singapore. Our goal is to champion photography arts; DECK embodies possibilities. It represents the diversity in an ecosystem that is shaping the arts in Singapore and Southeast Asia.

In April 2021, DECK’s first container-building reached the end of its lifespan and was demolished to charter a new horizon for photography and media arts. Rebuilding from the ground up as a brick and mortar building, the expanded space will house more showcases, incubate experimental ideas, nurture new talents and provide more opportunities for mid-career and ground-breaking artists.
