Hong Shu-ying 方舒颖 (b. 1997) is an artist who channels familiar sights, sounds, and spaces into her work. Drawing from her Singaporean upbringing, her process-oriented approach results in books, prints, and videos. She explores informal archives, blending found images to spotlight patterns. Shu earned her BFA in Media Art (Photography) from Nanyang Technological University. Her work has been exhibited in multiple countries, and she received the Kwek Leng Joo Prize and was featured in Objectifs’ 7th Women in Film showcase.

Ng Wei Xuan 黃煒軒 (b. 1996) is currently the Dizi musician of Singapore Chinese Orchestra. Pushing the boundaries of the Dizi, he hopes to uncover untapped avenues of musical expression. With a unique approach, the traditional instrument transforms into a poetic body that seeks for a story in sound. In 2023, Wei Xuan received the Best Graduate Award upon completing his Bachelor of Music (Honours) from the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts, in partnership with the Royal College of Music, under the tutelage of Yin Zhiyang.
