Great Traditions, Little Traditions is a photography exhibition featuring an international collaboration between a Singaporean and a Shanghainese visual artist. The showcase juxtaposes a foreign resident's perspective on daily rituals in Singapore with a local viewpoint on overlooked details of the island’s urban folk-traditions beyond religion. Exploring Singapore’s high productivity and the coexistence of habits and structures that are counter-efficient, it aims to engage the community in rethinking the value of what may appear as meaningless norms in our day-to-day life.
