'Otter - Personal Disaster Pack' Awarded the Red Dot Concepts 2012
The Red Dot Concepts 2012 award ceremony was held on the evening of 19 Oct 2012 at the Red Dot Museum, where winners from various countries gather to celebrate their victory. As mentioned during the ceremony by Prof Dr Peter Zec, President of Red Dot Germany, only 6% of all the submitted designs (more than 3000) won a red dot design award this year, and all winning entries were being hand-picked by the board of jury which comprised of independent designers, design journalist and professors from all over the world.
I was there to represent my country and receive my award for one of my design which I did in 2011; Otter - Personal Disaster Pack (or some would know it as the Otter Pack).
The award was dominated by designers and design institution from China, Taiwan, and Korea; which made up approximately 95 - 98% of the winners. Although I am 1 of the only 3 Singaporeans that won this year, I felt proud to represent this little red dot when my country was being announced as it breaks the flow of the constant "xxx from CHINA!", "xxx from TAIWAN!", "xxx from KOREA!" (which went on for 4 hours). Looking at the amount of award winning designers groomed by these continental giants, I feel that we, local designers, need to buck up!
The online exhibition can be viewed at http://red-dot.sg/dconcept/portfolio/view.php?rid=223, or you can head down to the Red Dot Museum (Singapore) to view the winning entries which will be displayed for a year.

Mendaki Learning Festival: Titans Wall
Was commissioned by Mendaki to do a 3 day display and showcase for the Mendaki Learning Festival @ Singapore Expo together with Stanger and Klaxon99. The aim was to showcase what Singapore Graffiti Writers are made of, and to also encourage and educate the public about this often misunderstood art form.

Free Sticker Lady
So a person who makes people smile and laugh with her art deserves to be punished more severely than a PRC bus driver who ran over an old lady with no sense of remorse? 3 years jail for someone who brought smiles to the faces of many who live in this miserable country, compared to few months jail term for the mothafucker who angered entire nation. Where is the justice?
Come on world, I'm giving you a chance to laugh at our pathetic country once again. http://news.asiaone.com/News/Latest+News/Singapore/Story/A1Story20120604-350551.html

We were once again invited to do a live showcase for the Siloso Beach Party 2011, with the team of 'Hydro'. However, this time it was a little bit different. Each piece was given only and hour time limit to finish and this is what I came up with while everyone is partying hard.
