Becoming

This mural by 8EyedSpud is a celebration of the ongoing, ever-evolving journey of self-discovery

Becoming Mural at TCT Pavilion

Year: 2025

Material: Paint

Dimensions: 640 x 1270cm

Location: Tan Chin Tuan Pavilion, Level 1


Inspired by NTU’s campus, a place filled with ideas and transformative experiences, this site-specific piece situated at the Tan Chin Tuan Lecture Theatre serves as a reminder that time here is an invitation to grow, reflect and become.

The artwork aims to capture the energy of life on campus and convey that spirit of curiosity and desire for discovery where everyone is part of a journey of creative exploration. The artist has incorporated iconic elements reminiscent of NTU in the artwork, for example notable buildings and the Chinese characters for "Nantah". The characters in the artwork are interacting with their surroundings, signifying how the campus is a place of discovery and where students can leave their mark.
