About the artwork

Chen Wen Ling’s ‘Smile’ stands at an impressive height of almost 3 metres, whilst posing its signature cheeky expression and arresting pose, a celebratory call to the audiences to embrace their inner child. The Red Boy, naked and free, has nothing to hide and serves as a testament to the artist’s fiery attitude towards life.
