To create Hannah’s backstory I had to do quite a lot of research. Firstly, how the journal would look like inside. I surfed Pinterest how girls usually design their journals.

For the ending, I wanted to leave it ambiguous whether she returns to Singapore after leaving when the semester ends so I decided to check out flights that were Read more →

Idea: A story set in the library that requires the participants to go on a hunt around the library. Participation level: High Expected outreach: Low

@ Eureka!

Hi, so for our final project we have to create an installation to be place in the ADM library. It sounds pretty interesting as it is like exhibiting our artwork in a real public space. Not only my classmates will be able to view the work but everyone that visits the ADM library.

@ viency

This project took me a long time to conceptualise. First of all, I always have a desperate need to connect with my work.

Task 1: Researching the site – ADM Library

Layout of ADM Library:

Majority of the people who uses the space in the library are students, and they go there to either kill time, relax or study. However I realised that they usually go there alone and they behave quietly, and are reserved. They hardly use the book shelves, unless for modules like Read more →

@ Junyuan Loo

Since everyone was so far ahead of the updates, I am gonna do a quick summarized update for my project 3 – The Library in ONE post.

Thinking of an installation art about the library is no easy task. This location is very common to anyone who has been a student, yet many of the library visitor has different perspective of Read more →

So the concept was embodied in a Read more →

Title of installation: The Soul Librarian Installation Summary: The library is a land of imagination, but it has dwindled to become something restrictive, boring and even stifling. Thus, in exchange for a bit of your soul, I invite you to play in the library with words and what more. Be a word artist. Write me a poem about Play, and Your Read more →
