Study of a Singaporean Face

2015 • Directed by

Megan Wonowidjoyo

Animation

The film captures a Singaporean zeitgeist in stop-motion sequences of impressionistic pencil drawings. Over 1,000 handdrawn portraits of real-life MRT commuters were used to create a tapestry of faces that eventually metamorphoses into a singular face as the short film provides a multi-dimensional gaze on a Singaporean identity.
