Synopsis:

In the face of low cost mass production, there has been far less reliance on our traditional trades which are now on the verge of disappearing. Learn about Singapore craftsmen and their contributions to our rich cultural heritage and design exploration, and how one young artist is incorporating these traditional elements in his modern works.
