Out of these submissions, works of 47 photographers from 23 countries were selected by the festival’s independent curatorial panel – Dr. Alexander Supartono, Dr. Adele Tan, Charles Merewether, and Tay Kay Chin – and exhibited across the National Museum of Singapore, DECK, and Chapel Gallery from 3 October 2014 to 30 November 2014.

For SIPF 2016, the festival’s independent panel of curators include renowned arts practitioners Jae-Hyun Seok (Independent Curator, South Korea), and Kazuko Sekiji (Curator at Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography, Japan).”
