“Mandi Bunga / Flower Bath” for Singapore Biennale 2013
UPDATE (DEC 2013): Mandi Bunga was a wild success! On 26 Oct 2013, over 100 people decked themselves out in yellow and marched from Singapore Art Museum to the National Museum of Singapore.

I’m steadily updating the site with Mandi Bunga news, images, blogposts and project info. Check it out by browsing the links below!
