Introduction
Artists and Judges 2021
Mr Jeffrey Wandly
Jeffrey Wandly captures the essence of heritage and historical landmarks with ink and acrylic on canvas. His paintings stimulate our senses beyond the visual. The unending lines of varying intensities and jaggedness denote a certain musicality. Fondly called “Building whisperer” by his collectors, Jeffrey has had three solo shows and exhibited in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Korea and Vietnam. His works can be found in the collections of government ministries, organisations and private individuals. An accomplished project management professional, he is also cofounder of Maya Gallery, together with his wife, Masturah Sha’ari.
Jeffrey holds a Master of Project Management from Queensland University of Technology. He graduated with a Bachelor of Architecture (Honours) from National University of Singapore. He is a recipient of the MENDAKI Excellence Award, for being the top Malay student at tertiary level, and the Architecture Angullia Scholarship. He received the Merit Award at the Singapore Tourism Board’s Saces Sculptor Competition in 1980 and the Third prize (Seniors) at the Takashimaya National Student Painting Competition in 1992. He also won the Best of Show Award at SeniKita by Kamal Arts Gallery in Wisma Geylang Serai in 2020.
