Across a 14 week x 3 hr sessions, students were tasked to each create a zine about a single item from their wardrobe and come together to produce a collective publication. The project culminated into an one night only exhibition at Second Story @ Thryft, Peace Centre, where students shared and circulated their zines about their stories to a new audience.&nbsp; Research, Pedagogy2023-2024 TO THE POWER OFAdawia Bte Azman Elmira Binte Mohammad Hizam Fatimah Binte Abdul Razak Nur Insyirah Binte Mohamad Aedey Nurul Nabilah Vu Thi Ha Phuong Rahmat Bin Adnan, He Mengxue Du Jingqi Katherine Lim Balzomo Student Participants Published in Fashion Studies Journal: Southeast Asia Issue.

Unlike the arts industry, there was little support for this sector.&nbsp; Out of curiosity and frustration, I co-founded the local research initiative, Don’t Mind If, and started a survey cheekily named “Don’t Mind If I Ask”, hoping to shed some light on the climate of Singapore’s Communication Design Industry and Community.

This was done with the help of local design studio, OuterEdit.Eventually, the data culminated into a 206-page publication containing illustrated data, insights and observations. It details the responses of students, fresh graduates, freelancers, and employees to business owners who work within the industry. Working closely with the community to accurately reflect its aspirations and anxieties, it also includes 15 opinion pieces by thought leaders and practitioners such as Justin Zhuang, Vanessa Ban, Adib Jalal, Danielle Ng and DesignSingapore Council. 500 copies were produced and have been distributed to buyers, collaborators, industry leaders and policy makers in &amp; out of the graphic design industry.Photographed by The Gentle Studio for OuterEdit. <img width="1707" height="2560" width_o="1707" height_o="2560" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/5af45f32395c1b1256f161381ce54de5f6bc089b6fca08814a9285dd5738346b/4320px-2022-04-12-OE-Dont-Mind-If-002-scaled.jpeg" data-mid="185502987" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/5af45f32395c1b1256f161381ce54de5f6bc089b6fca08814a9285dd5738346b/4320px-2022-04-12-OE-Dont-Mind-If-002-scaled.jpeg" /> <img width="2560" height="1707" width_o="2560" height_o="1707" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/76d81590fc806894b7a65f6f140a6e81aea18d2a3f064e141e1ddf2e1da3950b/4320px-2022-04-12-OE-Dont-Mind-If-009-scaled.jpeg" data-mid="185503017" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/76d81590fc806894b7a65f6f140a6e81aea18d2a3f064e141e1ddf2e1da3950b/4320px-2022-04-12-OE-Dont-Mind-If-009-scaled.jpeg" /> “The survey’s personal and introspective approach can perhaps be seen as an act of “self-care”, a means for designers to look after one another in the community. The results are certainly not representative, but it does represent a lived reality and a common space for more discussions, debates and initiatives about the profession. As earlier initiatives by other designers have shown, the worth of a profession is not solely determined by who it serves. Those who choose graphic design as their calling are just as important in shaping its values and future too.”Justin ZhuangDesign Writer <img width="1920" height="1080" width_o="1920" height_o="1080" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/52ca7a112681aee18abc2f57d137b36425daab5746e5ac55b8d5a6e41d0fa162/DMI_Testimonials.jpeg" data-mid="185503864" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/52ca7a112681aee18abc2f57d137b36425daab5746e5ac55b8d5a6e41d0fa162/DMI_Testimonials.jpeg" /> As part of Don’t Mind If commitment to engaging the community, I worked closely with DesignSingapore Council to organise Alter-Native, a panel discussion on the future of our ever-evolving communication design industry.
