I’ve always been curious about the world around me. When I was younger, I found myself constantly chasing sunsets, trying—usually unsuccessfully—to capture them on a cheap phone. That changed in 2023, when I picked up my first mirrorless camera. Suddenly, I had a reason to explore parts of Singapore I had never visited before. For the first time, I saw the quiet beauty woven into our everyday environments. I found myself wandering down alleys and into overlooked corners, searching for the true character of the city. I wanted to capture the very essence of the locations and somehow translate that feeling of awe through a screen and into the eyes of whoever saw my photos.
