“the torch” #15 – 'Mixation' – The true Singapore flavour




What is Singaporean about Singapore (apart from the girls)? Sinema’s column “The Torch” addresses this question as from a cosmopolitan perspective. Eastern or Western, whatever your angle, any 21st century creative industry professional has to be in addition to everything else a designer, drawing heavily on what our modern day life-style has in store and on permanent display in terms of visual communication, so it goes. There is of course the easy way of simple fusion that is rather ignorant of the things it lumps together to make it look nice and calm on the surface of appearance; and not just in S'pore, it has to be added.
