Artist Statement
In this fast-paced and digitalised society where everything is constantly changing, I document my ordinary life in Singapore in a slow manual manner. Through vivid graphic images of Singapore in tangling overlaid arrangement, I try to capture Singapore’s distinctive culture and dynamic lifestyle: diverse but not divided, busy yet orderly.
As I squeeze the white ink through the mesh at the final stage of the printing, the chaotically scattered images fall magically into an orderly circular format. It seems like dynamic characters and energies from various cultures are prospering inside of a perfect arrangement of law, system and discipline of Singapore.
