In the raw.

Abstract

"In the Raw" deals with the metaphorical use of the body and involvement of my family in image making practice that is commonly unaccepted within Singapore. The images operate largely on two levels: the first being an exploration of private and relationship issues that are not frequently discussed among my family and the second being more universal issues considered taboo among the family in general. These include aging, death and tensions within parent-caretaker-child relationships.
