wayang in singapore has diminished over the decades; replaced by theaters and cinemas. what many fail to see though, is that we are loosing one of our richest heritage, shedding light on how traditional practices were carried out. in this case, a wedding. the intricate designs of the costumes and the backdrops, together with the dramatic story lines come together to give a truly stunning performance

submitted this for the competition in the end. together with this and this and one more which i havent uploaded. think this piece has the highest chance of winning. haha. really like it.
