We were at Anak Melayu, Wisma Geylang Serai’s first-ever arts and youth festival! The festival brought together established artists and new talents for a full day of music, art and culture.

Sights & Scents of Geylang is an interactive exhibition we created with Aroma Nostalgia. Each scent brings back a feeling or memory tied to the neighbourhood, and is paired with a short story written by Izyanti Asa’ari, with sound design by Artwave Studio and spatial design by Russel Goh.

Alongside the exhibition, we ran Warna Geylang, meaning “colours of Geylang”, a drop-in activity where visitors coloured in an illustrated streetscape of Geylang. The streetscape featured landmarks familiar to the neighbourhood, so everyone got to see these places through their own palette.
