This work by Singaporean artist Eng Tow was inspired by the simple form of a single grain of rice, and its potential for multiple associations. It elevates rice beyond the mundane, and invites the viewer to examine its role in the history, economies and construction of cultural identity in Asia. 

 

This artwork was gifted to Jewel Changi Airport by the National Heritage Board.
