In 1997, Singh traveled to the Netherlands to participate in a project at the Tropenmuseum in Amsterdam, where she began to take an interest in issues of migration and migrant labour. In 2000–2001, she was an artist-in-residence at Greatmore Studios in Cape Town, South Africa, which prompted a deeper engagement with the philosophy of Mahatma Gandhi.
In 2010, Singh was invited to be an artist-in-residence at STPI — Creative Workshop & Gallery in Singapore. Her work has been exhibited in India, South Africa, Australia, New York, and the Netherlands, where she was associated with the Foundation of Indian Artists, Amsterdam.
Singh's work was added to the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, and was most recently featured in the group exhibition Prussian Blue at the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art, Noida, curated by Dr Arshiya Lokhandwala (2023).
