    Reimagining the Art Salon for the 21st Century

    The Culture Story is more than a private art space—it is a dynamic platform where collectors, connoisseurs, and enthusiasts engage with contemporary art in fresh and meaningful ways. Founded by father-daughter duo Chong Huai Seng and Ning Chong, it reflects their ever-evolving approach to collecting, driven by curiosity and a willingness to look beyond established narratives.
