Doggie’s Breath Isle
On some days, I feel like running as fast as I can in an open field till my nostrils hurt, my lungs burn and I lose control of my legs. Like a dog running with no worries.
On some days, I feel like standing on the table at office, with the song “WHAT’S UP by 4 non blondes” playing in the background and “I SCREAM FROM THE TOP OF MY LUNGS WHAT’S GOING ON “. Ending the song with a bang by jumping off the table, smashing the keyboard of my laptop like an electric guitar. On some days, I wish I could take small boat out into the open sea to an island to take a nap. Do you feel this way too?

LAM-BO, a state of Nicia Lam’s post-graduation limbo. The trippy forest embodies Nicia’s idiosyncrasies and expresses her journey of navigating the complexity of life after school. Tumbling through the unknowns, life as an adult has not always been a bed of roses. But among the thorns, many adventures await. LAM-BO embraces the uncertainties of life and celebrates the spontaneous.

Vibrant shophouses and strong Peranakan heritage are the hallmarks of Katong. At the heart of its growing tradition, the medley of people and food spice up the alleys of lively Katong. The two walls in Medley Alley unite to form wings that represent the metamorphosis between generations and the modern interpretation of the iconic Peranakan tiles.

The artists embodied the cultural backbone by intensifying the flavours of Katong with their artistry and eccentricity.

Wall Mural Singapore, Boogie in the Dark at Kandahar Street

The 1970s was everything but boring. A decade that played a pivotal role in shaping the future for the better. From the counterculture movement that dismantled social stigmas and taboos, peace movements, and the birth of great music.

In embodying the spirit of spreading love, “Boogie in the Dark” is an underwater 70s disco-themed party, where sea creatures of all kind come together to celebrate diversity.

Animation by Nicia Lam, Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts Final Year Project

Sinless Wanton City revolves around growth, uncertainties and the transformation from one thing to something greater, metamorphosis.

With youth as the genesis of onslaught freedom and age of rebellion, sinless wantonness. Riding on a rollercoaster of emotions and adventures with undaunted power of being a youth. Beyond what seems like a fleeting halcyon summer, many more inexhaustible summer awaits, many more peaks waiting to be scaled.

In pursuit of the next “the best day of my life” is to relive the power of youth once more.

KIRA (Glitter) aims to dismantle preconceived notions of vulnerability. By challenging societal demands of being strong and weak. Through claymation, illustrations and heartfelt collection of voice recordings, the short film hopes to encourage men to be forthcoming about their emotions, open towards receiving affection and seeking help.

Inspired by Kintsugi, the art of highlighting cracks and embracing imperfections. A shift in perspective can aid in destroying toxic masculinity, the stigma that plagues men to suppress their emotions and act according to gender norms. In normalising crying, a perceived sign of weakness, tears can be seen to add shimmer to the eyes.

There is strength in vulnerability.
In the memory of Dylan.
