Spiral-bound book archiving 10 symbols of Singaporean culture, ranging from childhood snacks to somewhat distasteful habits that Singaporeans tend to portray in public. The title of the book is in Singlish, which is a form of broken English that majority of Singaporeans communicate in. Symbols are 3D-modelled or made into abstract images to reflect the tenuous, multifaceted relationship I have with my home country. Partially inspired by Stefanie Tam’s 3D Catalogue.
