Photo + Haiku Exhibition

In Singapore on April 16, 2008 at 12:47 pm

Thanks to everyone who came down to visit my exhibition which was ongoing from 31 March to 04 April. It was really awesome considering this is the first time I ran an exhibition proper and also the first time I’ve paired photos with haikus. Thanks Nabilah for the wonderful haikus you wrote. Quite frankly, before we actually put up the exhibition at Frujch, before we had a tangible result to look at, I had no idea how it would turn out or if it would even look good at all. Thank God it turned out to be a pleasant surprise.

After much discussion, Nabilah and I agreed on the unifying theme of time. This is because we’re both graduating students (I just had my final paper yesterday) and we’re at this stage in life where time means so much and we don’t know where time will bring us all. The first segment of the exhibition is time standing still and the second segment of the exhibition is time moving. Pretty much self-explanatory why we chose those two categories of time.

  1. Cool Stuff! I wish I did something like that just before I graduated!

  2. love the haikus and the photos!! and i love the albums collection too. the way you strategically capture the covers is really fitting.

  3. @jem Yes it was indeed fun doing the never-done-before things just before I graduated. By the way, do you happen to be any of the jems that I know?

    @shireen When I think of albums and you, I think of all the secondary school and jc rock-star wannabe bands that we made up! Happy, funny memories.

  4. Oh no. I don’t think I am any of the jems that you know! I found your blog through Jes’ blog. Cheers!

  5. really really v good woman! it was amazinggggggg
    i love student-led productions. =)

  6. Jac + Nabs, you girls are awesome.

    who would have though a haiku could capture a photo so well or a photo capture a haiku?

    this exhibition, I definitely liked.

  7. @jem I love Jes’ photos as well! Glad you found your way here. Cheers.

    @thehsuperficies And I loved the show that superseniorallstarjam put up at Starry Night too! Hopefully I’ll get the photos up soon.

    @sherms Heh I’m really glad I got to know you and Nabs better this sem.
