what does it mean to exist beside each other?
piecing together diary entries from 2022 - 2024, Alone Together is a collection of rambles on human existence, dreamlike illustrations, printmaking experiments and slices of everyday life. written in a stream of consciousness, the book wavers between feelings of comfort and anxiety from interpersonal relationships and self-perception.

Transient
32 pages of A4 tracing paper, saddle stitched
exhibited in Traces, IBDP Year 6 Graduation Showcase 2024, School of the Arts, Singapore
in endless study and pursuit of the fleeting moment, Transient observes the fragility of contemporary lifestyles through long-exposure photographs of passersby at a pedestrian crossing. immortalising the short duration of a sunset, the book examines the urban experience through fragments of time in an ever-shifting space. printed on tracing paper, the book becomes a delicate object, documenting mundane yet ephemeral occurrences. surreal colours create a dream-like atmosphere, questioning if such fleeting moments can be precious.
