Colouring Edo and a monochromatic take on a colourful side of Kyoto


ukiyo-e or woodblock printing.
Ukiyo-e, which translates into “pictures of the transient world”, or as the Britannica has it, “pictures of the floating world”, came to the fore during a period of cultural and social renaissance in 18th and 19th century Edo, with the term “transient world” or “floating world” being a euphemism for Edo’s popular entertainment quarters. Produced for the mass market,
ukiyo-e, with its depictions of popular theatre artistes, courtesans, and maybe the seedier aspects of life in the pleasure quarters, could be thought of as a platform for the social influencers of the day — much like what social media and the likes of Instagram is, in the world of today.

Photographer Russel Wong teams up with STPI; One Dream to create orchid prints honouring front-liners


SINGAPORE - Acclaimed photographer Russel Wong has created two orchid compositions in honour of Singapore's medical and social service workers.
The print-based works, produced during a recent residency at STPI - Creative Workshop and Gallery, are titled Purple Phalaenopsis and Pink Phalaenopsis.
The lithograph-on-paper prints were unveiled in a ceremony at STPI on Wednesday (Jan 27). Forty-nine prints have been given to the National Centre for Infectious Diseases and Family Service Centres across the island.
Wong, 59, popularly known for his photos of celebrities such as Isabella Rossellini and Jackie Chan, shot the Phalaenopsis orchids in his studio. The photographic images were then translated into photolithographic prints. He used coloured pulp to put in the detail of the flowers' veins.
