Silent Hands delves into the often-overlooked lives of migrant workers who contribute significantly to Singapore’s growth and development. The painting depicts a worker cleaning windows at Fortune Centre, symbolizing the quiet yet essential labor that shapes the city. The black-and-white latex figures in this piece represent the anonymity of these workers, whose faces and identities are often masked by society, despite their pivotal role in Singapore’s daily operations. The painting captures the paradox of visibility and invisibility— how they are present in the skyline yet remain unseen in the broader narrative of the city’s progress. Through this work, Arora sheds light on their silent contributions, inviting the viewer to reflect on the hidden, yet indispensable, labor that sustains a city constantly in motion.
