The Net is a hanging sculpture made up of “trash” from the Singapore River. It is a depiction of the state of Singapore River in the 1970's, when it suffered from severe pollution. The different shapes represent the different types of rubbish collected when the water was cleaned.

His artwork engages the “Great Singapore River Debate” of the 1970s and 80s, where Singaporean artists were criticised for their overuse of the River as a subject matter.
