EducationDECK Student Education Programme was launched in 2012 with the primary goal of elevating the levels of visual literacy amongst our primary, secondary and tertiary level students. We firmly believe that Photography is a powerful means of personal expression and an intuitive way to communicate how we see our world. By developing our student’s photographic line of inquiry, our courses are designed in mind to not only to equip our young people with the essential technical skills, but to also enable them with the visual vocabulary to express creative ideas through Photography.

Hear how Sarah (@ultralitebean.jpg) and Tan Wei (@_tanwei) navigate memory, space, and the unseen in their works for Undescribed #10!
Sarah’s work, “A host, an overgrowth and an implant”, transforms the familiar bougainvillea by merging it with her brain scans, confronting strangeness, identity, and recovery in a surreal, fast-moving world. Tan Wei dives deep into the subconscious in “Aporia”, using blue-toned dreamscapes to question language, emotion, and our inner “non-places.”

Hear Luna (@lun3rc) and Renee (@ruhneyo) share their insights into their works for Undescribed #10! Luna’s “prescription lenses for future vision” explores memory and healing by “washing” Polaroids from personal archives, using experimental processes to reflect on trauma and the passage of time. Renee reimagines the city through ‘pigeon lenses’ in “Pigeonopolis”, challenging human-centric perspectives with vibrant, UV-inspired visuals.
