| Publisher Description: 52 Tales is a collection of 52 unique illustrations on Singapore specially commissioned to celebrate 52 years of nation building. This compilation follows the Singapore narrative and is based on local tales, folklore and idiosyncrasies as interpreted through the perspective of illustrations.Like the many hands that built this city, each illustration is a co-created piece with two artists working together on it. From elaborate illustrations of historical events and visual feasts of favorite dishes, from the story of Hang Nadim to why the Singapore Flyer rotates upstream, each unique drawing gives its own spin on Singapore. |
