Capteh On & On

Music by Jean Reiki

 

Mural

Yuki and Pierrot, signature characters from Polkaros, visit Bukit Merah and challenge residents and visitors on a game of capteh—an old school children’s game that requires one to continuously kick a colourful shuttlecock in the air for as long as they can. Capteh On & On invites viewers to become a part of the mural. No dexterity needed.

 

Music

From squeaky noise, fun sound effects, percussive woodstick, surreal 80s synth pad, light melodies and tones, Capteh On & On encapsulates the mood of an upbeat pace of life, a decade of unburdened cheerfulness.

After spending almost a decade in Tokyo where she studied textile design and worked as a designer, she returned to Singapore. In 2011, she launched Polkaros to create objects that delight and bring joy to users. She also runs regular creative workshops under Polkaros Craft Club.

 

“No iphone
No iPad
No computer
No rule book on how to play.

As kids, we just had our way of arranging play dates, make-do with whatever scraps available and have fun with games.”
