Bugis, Singapore
What a strange vintage we are. Constantly needing to photograph each thing, each moment. What other species demands to self archive everything? The same information, experiences, places visually captured over and over again. What do we expect to learn from it; from taking a picture of it all?

Reflectional Texture
Let's suppose you wanted to create a body of work. Something that embodied more than your travels. Something that wasn't just a collection of your travels photographs, but rather the eye you saw them with.
How would you start?
East Pulau Ubin
Kayaking from Pasir Beach, across the straight, and then all the way around Palau Ubin sounded like a great idea. 20KM later, it no longer seemed like such a carefree plan. Everyone survived and in hindsight I'm glad to have done it.

Pulau Sekudu, 青蛙岛
Legend has it that three animals from Singapore a pig, an elephant, and a frog had a challenge to see who could swim the shore of Johor first. The animals that failed to reach the shore would be turned into a rock. All three creatures were bad swimmers and could not reach Malaysia. So the frog turned into Pulau Sekudu, while the the pig and elephant turned into Pulau Ubin.
