Singapore Maritime Gallery
The Singapore Maritime Gallery showcases Singapore’s maritime achievements and its role as a global hub port. The gallery serves a dual purpose: to support diplomatic objectives by highlighting Singapore’s maritime leadership, and to educate the public and schools about the nation’s maritime heritage and future.
The redevelopment was carried out across two leadership transitions, each with distinct objectives, requiring a cohesive narrative that could bridge both visions. The content was designed to transition seamlessly in tone of voice and interpretation, anchoring the nation’s maritime past firmly in the present so that visitors could better understand and appreciate the enduring efforts of the port.
My Role:
Creative Lead, Content Manager:
1. Led content redevelopment through two phases, aligning tone, narrative and content across leadership transition and evolving objectives.
2. Served as the main liaison between MPA’s corporate communications, government partners (NHB, NLB), researchers, and creative vendors (video, interactive, and graphic design).
3. Conceptualised and aligned content across all media — from interactive exhibits to videos and graphics — to engage diverse audiences, including school groups.
4. Balanced creative storytelling with institutional and diplomatic goals to deliver a unified visitor experience.
SENTIENT BEINGS, VIRTUAL WORLDS:
REVELATIONS IN DIGITAL ETHNOGRAPHIES
Sentient Being, Virtual World reimagines Thai heritage through digital techniques that preserve and transform cultural memory. Created with Silpakorn University, the exhibition featured two Thai artist-educators from the Faculty of Decorative Arts whose distinct works revealed how technology can sustain and reinterpret tradition to teach the next generation about their own heritage and engage them in new ways of understanding it.
Presented alongside Seeking Chimera: Myths of Southeast Asia, a digital game developed for another event, the exhibition came together through the shared theme of digital ethnography—using new media to sustain heritage and education. Careful spatial planning and curatorial alignment ensured the experience felt intuitive and welcoming, while operational considerations such as audience safety, movement flow, and supervision were embedded into the design to support meaningful and comfortable engagement for all visitors.
My Role:
Curator, Spatial Planner:
1. Conceptualised the exhibition framework and thematic alignment between works
2. Designed the spatial layout and user flow to guide intuitive visitor engagement
3. Managed project coordination with Silpakorn University, internal NAFA teams, and external partners
4. Provided creative direction for graphic content and interpretive materials
5. Ensured accuracy across interpretive texts, translations, and digital interfaces
6. Led content direction and interpretation across all digital and physical touchpoints
