Visual Journalist & Filmmaker
Wayne Lim (b. 2000) is a visual journalist and filmmaker based between Singapore and Perth.
He is a recent graduate from Nanyang Technological University's Wee Kim Wee School of Communication and Information. Across both journalistic and personal projects, he is often drawn to themes of longing and belonging.
His work has been published in Austin’s alt-weekly The Austin Chronicle and Singapore’s daily broadsheet The Straits Times, and awarded at College Photographer of the Year, the world’s largest collegiate photojournalism competition.
His films have also screened at the Oscar-qualifying Short Shorts Film Festival & Asia (Japan) and the Singapore Youth Film Festival, among others.
As a lens-based artist, his creative practice is grounded in an ongoing search for self and home.

My parents moved to Perth when I was 10. Uncovering and categorising images from family albums and Facebook posts over the years, I reflected on the distance — both physical and emotional — between me and my parents in my formative years.
