The notion of being multiracial itself acknowledges the disparity in races of a society. This statement is the base of the project 20 Years in Artefacts: Re-interpreting ‘multiracialism’ which speaks about how race is structured in Singapore. The project talks about the idea of multiracialism, including my own perspective on how it is structured. It examines those tensions between harmonious multiracial living and the aim of keeping the individual racial groups’ roots. It also looks beyond the surface of race in Singapore, digging deeper into complexities and the issues that arise out of simplified racial groupings. The project aims to open up new ways of looking at race in Singapore.
