Artist Statement
This work is inspired by the tsukemen at Fukusuke Izakaya—hands down the best I’ve had in Singapore. The dipping broth was a deep bonito richness, topped with a clean bite of a perilla leaf. The space–small, with handwritten items on a menu and retro posters—the kind of atmosphere that felt like a shortcut to 1980s Japan. Through this piece, I tried to bottle that feeling of warmth and nostalgia.
