The artwork was done under LASALLE College of the Arts, Singapore. The team
behind the making of the work consists of: Betty Susiarjo, Andreas Schlegel, Luke
Heng, Chen Shitong, Chelsea Zhao Xin, Ronald Cheah and Xiuting Yang.
These local vintage objects, acquired from The Thieves Market in Rochor, are
featured deliberately to convey the impression of a motherboard. The final piece was
executed in three styles of image making, from traditional pencil drawing to
monoprint and modern digital drawing. The artwork attempts to examine the binary
reflections of what Singapore’s youths share, while living in a contemporary city: a
fascination with technological advancement through the fastest gadgets and gear, as
well as sentimentality for history, tradition and memorabilia.
The artwork is a permanent installation and can be viewed today in Rochor MRT station, Singapore.
