Description
The Peranakans (Straits Chinese) of Singapore are known for their unique culture, which is often described as a hybrid of Chinese, Malay and Western cultures. They are also known for their kuehs – steamed bit-size sweet cakes made from glutinous rice or tapioca flour. In this artwork, a kueh lapis (“lapis” means “layers” in Malay) is merged with another iconic Singaporean feature, the traditional shophouse. The artwork also depicts a slice of neighborhood life that those growing up in the early 1950s might be familiar with, and which now remains in our collective memories.
