“It Takes a Village to Raise a City” was a 10m commissioned artwork for an office in Singapore. It revisits the “sooting” technique of charring bamboo weaves using candles, and tweaking the individual weaves for a pixelated effect. The vignette portrayed in this piece harkens back to the nostalgic landscapes of early fishing villages built along the coasts of Singapore.

“It Takes a Village to Raise a City” 是为新加坡的一所办公室而设计的10米长艺术品。作品用了火熏的方式来烧竹编席，并个别地对竹编进行调整，以取得像素化的效果。该作品所描绘的小景让人回想起早期新加坡沿海渔村的怀旧景象。
