Pairing of painting with sculpture
In the rush of our daily lives, it’s easy to overlook the small, fleeting moments of joy, the simple comfort of familiar sights and flavours that define our city. This sculpture honours the unsung heroes of modern urban life, those who bridge distances to deliver not just meals, but moments of warmth and happiness in neatly packed packages. It serves as a gentle reminder to pause, notice, and cherish these everyday gestures that often pass by unnoticed. In a world that moves fast, sometimes happiness truly does arrive on wheels.

A Collector of Happy Things
The gravity-defying sculptures are essentially "assemblages" of familiar or nostalgic items that are commonplace in Singapore. Each piece serves as a tribute to the small, precious moments of growing up and living in Singapore. Just as every memory is tied to a specific moment in time, each sculpture is paired with a painting that narrates its imagery within the drawing, akin to a causality dilemma. The interplay between sculpture and painting evokes a sense of duality, where both exist in parallel, almost fantastical realities, much like a world seen through a looking-glass.
It has been said that a good life is a collection of happy memories. Throughout our lives, we often accumulate baggage that stays with us for a long time. We can choose to be a beast of burden or be a collector of happy things.
