Khairullah Rahim is a Singapore-based contemporary artist working across installation, objects, image and time-based media. He holds a Master of Fine Arts in Visual Arts from the Mason Gross School of the Arts, Rutgers University (2023). He currently serves as an adjunct faculty member at University of the Arts Singapore (LASALLE).

Working across multiple registers of material and form, Khairullah’s practice examines the entanglements of queerness, POZ resilience, working-class subjectivities, and the decolonisation of botany, with a particular emphasis on strategies of survival and resourcefulness within regimes of surveillance. Khairullah has undertaken artist residencies at IASPIS (Stockholm), Salzburger Kunstverein (Salzburg), Facebook (Singapore), Hubei Institute of Fine Arts (Hubei), Taipei Artist Village (Taipei), and YOUKOBO Art Residency Programme (Tokyo). His work has been exhibited internationally at institutions such as the Barbican Centre (London), Tai Kwun (Hong Kong), Centre for Contemporary Arts (Glasgow), Tiger Strikes Asteroid (New York), Bangkok Art and Culture Centre (Bangkok), and the National Gallery Singapore, among others.
