Youthful Echoes
A Visual Tale of Singapores Playgrounds

Scratches, drawings, and scribbles mark traces of human presence, adding a unique character to Singapore’s playgrounds—once a central part of every neighbourhood and deeply meaningful to children. These spaces also became quiet retreats for teenagers, who left behind signs of their youth.
In contrast, newer playgrounds, though pristine, feel lifeless—lacking the "scars" that reflect time and community. This photo series captures the spirit of childhood, a feeling familiar to many Singaporeans who grew up playing in these spaces.
