French perfumer Blaise Mautin who creates scents that can be only made on a made-to-order basis has created a new Subsection Candle for Visvim. This candle reflects the style and concept of the Japanese retail store, F.I.L. The scent is a combination of bergamote orange, patchouli sandle wood, musk and a spice from Virginia. Like all other Visvim products, each item is carefully planned out and crafted. Available now at the Honeyee Store.
The Singaporean quartet of Alvin Tan, Melvin Chee, Jackson Tan and William Chan formed the :phunk stuido in 1994. Together they would go on and represent the Champions of Singapore’s Graphic Scene. Their theme of universality is a direct representation of all they stand for. Their diverse backgrounds create a mirage of different themes and ideas. They were recently invited by the Museum of Contemporary Art in Taipei to showcase their works. These works for 2007 include silk screened canvas, video art, and sculptures.
