BY SIYUAN AW It is early evening in Singapore, and the sun is beginning to set. I lay the first brushstrokes to a new canvas in my makeshift studio. The quiet is broken by the uncanny flutter of wings. I close my eyes, and my mind takes flight. In my vision, a golden eagle soars.…

It would be a journey to discover places from our imagination.

We’d spent the last couple days preparing for it, and he’d been nailing the new vocabulary about gift-giving and bag-packing. He could tell you what he’s going to buy his wife for their anniversary (jewelry), and he…

BY KATHRYN HATCHETT We cross the final river of our trek. Not that you could call it a river yet. The winding ribbon carving out a valley for itself is a couple of feet wide and would be shallow enough to walk through on foot without boots. It trickles towards the coast, a riverbed mosaic…
