Capitol Theatre – A Warhol Pop Revival

This artwork reinterprets Singapore’s Capitol Theatre in the dazzling language of Andy Warhol’s pop art. A bustling 1950s city scene—once captured in sepia-toned memory—is here reborn in neon pinks, cobalt blues, and vibrant yellows. The halftone textures and bold outlines recall Warhol’s screen-prints, turning the iconic theatre, vintage cars, and trishaws into living symbols of urban nostalgia.

By fusing historic architecture with the playful irreverence of pop culture, the piece celebrates both memory and reinvention. It invites viewers to see the Capitol not only as a landmark of Singapore’s cultural past, but also as a canvas where history collides with contemporary visual energy.
