Singapore Inside-out Artists highlight
“They have translated the idea of time in hyperspace as depicted in the anime magical girl series of Sailor Moon.” The magical transformation sequence of the concept of “frozen in time” was expressed through the medium of clothing/material and projected “Crepuscular rays of the Moon”, myriad abstract dreamlike animated fantasies inspired by the moon.
