#Ephemera: New Experiences, Greater Heights
A pop-up exhibition called Ephemera for all kinds of working artists at The Substation on Armenian Street and it was organised by Invisible Photographer Asia. The idea of this exhibition is that it will only last for exactly 18000 seconds hence the name Ephemera which refers to something that you can only enjoy temporarily.

Last minute shopping sprees, bargaining by the road side and migrant workers in good mood from having an additional day off to their weekend. The atmosphere was jovial and light.
Weekly Grind: Part VI
Some of the things that they shared touches on the need to have a lot of energy and motivation that what we are doing can and will make a difference. This is also the main reason why I've decided a long time ago that I want my photography to mean something more than what it used to be. It needs to be a vessel of a story, a vessel for change.
