Artwork produced under the theme 'Growth' for
Tiger Translate - 100cm x 70cm.
Growth is a progression. In modern Asia, we are growing out of the conservative mindset and being more open to ideas and creative expressions, while at the same time struggling not to lose our traditional virtues and values.
Nothing lasts forever, because forever fades away.
We were invited to be part of the World Cup 2010 Artists' Series, whereby illustrators from each of the countries that Nike is sponsoring during the Football World Cup in Africa, 2010, are invited to illustrate the 'Call to Arm's' of their national team.
We were given the word 'Dare' and a reference of our work that Nike particularly like. After an idea ping-pong session with David from A&P we came back with a singular abstract representation of the Lion, which not only represents the Singapore national team 'The Lions', but also appropriate as Singapore means Lion City.
Although the national team never made it to the World Cup, it is the same spirit of bravery, courage and daringness, that we felt we should have to venture to new terrains, to push our limits, and to prove ourselves against the odds. After all,
only dead fishes go with the flow. Direction by David from Accept&Proceed.

Bubbles are something insubstantial, something intangible. If it were, probably only for a few seconds.
And it is this very same reason that bubbles, like us, appear to be the most beautiful because of our similar ephemeral quality.

‘Only dead fish swim with the stream’ was a quote by Malcolm Muggeridge that we chanced upon during our time at an ad agency. It was resonated by our co-chairman, urging us to be persistent about ideas, subtly reflecting about the down-hill state of local/regional advertising. We couldn’t agree more. In fact, it became our raison d’être that led us to start on our own. Our visualisation of this quote was translated onto this illustrated typographic poster. Below is an excerpt we’d like to share:
“…As individuals and as a creative community, what should we be persistent about? For me, it’s clear as day. We should be persistent about ideas and we should be prepared to fight for them. To be candid, there is a dearth of ‘fight’ in all of us. Creatives, planners and account handlers are all equally guilty of it. Instead of defending the work at meetings, we sit around like Buddhas. We take the path of least resistance. We give in. We go through the motion. We settle for the merely good because greatness is just too anarchic to deal with! To keep peace, we sacrifice the work. And life goes on. Malcolm Muggeridge described this condition as well.
Only dead fish, he said, go with the flow…”
We hope this quote will inspire you, like it did for us.
