This week we speak to architect, collector, curator and artist William Lim on how the pandemic has reinstilled and developed his interest in painting as an artistic practice. We discuss his most recent oil paintings - interior spaces of his late mother and brother's rooms, and how they've become a means of emotional relief and reflection.
As Founder and Managing Director of CL3 Architects Ltd. (CL3), William Lim brings over 30 years of experience to his projects. An acclaimed architect and artist, William graduated from Cornell University and has spent the past two decades at the forefront of architecture, culture and art.
