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. Thank you for your guidance.

In collaboration with Stones Throw Records and Constant, I designed the vinyl covers and assets for Sudan Archives’ Athena album release. The design for the album followed a muted palette that helped accentuate the image of the goddess, Athena, to be personified by Sudan Archives herself. Drawings by Ameer Hoti, art direction by Ben Dickey, Alexa Carrasco, and design by Jordi Ng and Jeff Jank.
