  • In Open Waters

    Arianna / April 17, 2022
    “In Singapore, it is too hot outdoors, and too cold indoors. I never know how to dress because if I wear summer clothes for the outdoors, then I need to carry something for when I’m indoors, because it’s too cold.”

    Belle / April 14, 2022
    “I work in tech but I studied illustration in school. I just happened to get a job from a friend after graduating, and somehow it’s been four years since then. I don’t have the hustle to pursue illustration full-time, but I still draw at home.”

    Shaidirin / April 12, 2022
    “I love the freedom of boating. I have the freedom to lie down, smoke, and do whatever I want. There are no supervisors or superiors, just me. And I love the ocean—it’s very peaceful, just me and the water.”

  • Work In Progress

    Marcus / April 10, 2022
    “I want to be able to wake up every single day and look forward to what I’m going to do because I believe in sustainability. If what you’re doing for work isn’t emotionally and mentally sustainable for you, then one day, it’s just going to collapse.”

  • A Warm Glow

    Ying / April 7, 2022
    “To maintain a work-life balance, I really try to limit my phone time. Everything is about social media right now, and I used to use it indiscriminately and just posted whatever I wanted, because I thought “It’s my life what, who cares?”. But now I think there needs to be some thought behind it.”

    Leo / April 5, 2022
    “Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve is my favourite place in Singapore. I saw so many animals that I can’t see in France, and this is so crazy to me. For example, it’s strange to see crocodiles in nature, because in France, I can only see small animals in the wild, not reptiles.”

  • Easy Breezy

    Vanina / April 3, 2022
    “The freedom of living independently is very refreshing. Back home, I have a big family, and sometimes it can be quite overwhelming living together, so it’s good to be able to manage my time on my own and not have any rules to follow.”

  • The Way Of Scent

    Lip / March 31, 2022
    “My folks are very typical Chinese folks, but then again, they’re a little bit different as well because they never question what I do as an artist, and are pretty supportive. In fact, I think I got a lot more critical comments than praise about my work from them.”

  • Pathfinder

    Justine / March 29, 2022
    “I decided to pursue my interests in terms of my career, and it’s been the most liberating thing I’ve ever done for myself. Before this, I’d always been following what my parents wanted for me, but we all have different paths to choose in life.”

  • In Pursuit

    Kanika / March 27, 2022
    “One of my all-time favourite books is Shoe Dog: A Memoir by the Creator of Nike by Phil Knight. It’s taught me to always be fearless when starting on something new, and to just go all-in to achieve my dreams.”

    Charm / March 24, 2022
    “I think the biggest thing I’ve learnt in school is how to start over again. Sometimes I get really stuck in my work, but I’ve learnt to not to be so hard on myself, and to give myself time to grow. I think that’s quite important.”

  • Luminescence

    Ethel / March 22, 2022
    “I’m very particular when it comes to cleanliness. I think I got that from my dad. Friends who know me will know how particular my dad is, and it runs in the family, I guess.”
