It engages with the history and identity of Tanjong Pagar and is a tribute to the memory of the district's massive development over two centuries. The flags that make up the installation are an assemblage of material swatches colour-matched with physical objects and digital images of the area. Consolidated from over 400 colours, these swatches are derived from the landscape and architecture, natural and man-made materials that have defined the district's past industries. Gosh!
