"Go downstairs", 2020

Acrylic on canvas

Reminiscing about a more joyful and time during the artist's childhood days in kindergarten, the platform waiting area under the public housing known as Housing Development Board (HDB) incorporates aspects of a playground, as that was where the artist and her cousin used to play whilst waiting for their school bus. Pastel colours and clouds are used to convey the nostalgic and child-like feel. The emphasis and focal point of the wooden platform give significance to a place the artist rarely thought much about but now holds great memories of her childhood.
