Feathered Friends

What is a Singaporean Dream? I've thought about that many times especially coming from a family that holds especially high expectations from me. We all have dreams and in today's society where choices are made available, making right decisions brings forth much anxiety.

The Dream catcher in my work is used as a metaphor to represent my best friend. Some may say it is a Superstitious belief to depend on a Dream catcher. I personally hope that it brings me to the right path and make the right decision. This world that is being portrayed in my artwork captures the realities of my passion as well as the expectations I have as a growing teenager. If Dream catchers could catch dreams, what dreams would you chase?
