From the Ted Talk by Niceaunties: The weird and wonderful art of Niceaunties

Unscramble the Blue Letters


(lgaehutr)

Never before have I found a medium that felt like the shortest path between my ideas and the visual. It became addictive.

Rather than just making images, I wanted to do more with this tool, to tell stories about auntie crtuule. My mhoter engages in many social activities. She is very active, a result of her mother's imimtliboy and limited life. She decans and proefmrs just like the aunties do in Singapore's parks every day. This was a huge inspiration for me.

So "Niceaunties" was born, a peocjrt about freedom, exuberance, self-expression and fun. It is a lighthearted perspective on the jyoufl side of auntie life. Also a surreal narrative, loosely based on the women in my family, their social lives, their relationships, their quirks, humor, and, of course, food.

Never before have I found a medium that felt like the shortest path between my ideas and the visual. It became addictive.

Rather than just making images, I wanted to do more with this tool, to tell stories about auntie culture. My mother engages in many social activities. She is very active, a result of her mother's immobility and limited life. She dances and performs just like the aunties do in Singapore's parks every day. This was a huge inspiration for me.

So "Niceaunties" was born, a project about freedom, exuberance, self-expression and fun. It is a lighthearted perspective on the joyful side of auntie life. Also a surreal narrative, loosely based on the women in my family, their social lives, their relationships, their quirks, humor, and, of course, food.
