　　詩集分〈厚〉與〈重〉。〈厚〉收錄靜物（對物的書寫），閒情（情為何物），詩人（與詩人對話），地景（地景詩寫），島國（書寫新加坡），茶詩（以茶入詩）。〈重〉收錄了時間的故事（書寫時光），戀人與初戀（戀愛之惦記），人的自畫像（詩人的自述），活物質活物（眾生相），近處與遠方（旅行至遠方）。想一本詩集收錄如此多主題，真是不自量力，但也希望讀者看在如此努力用心的份上，拍掌鼓勵一二。

“We obsess about who they look like - the papa, the mama, a cousin, one or other of grandparents.

Mostly, they look like each other. Or like bugs. Or burritos.”

What does it truly mean to be a grandparent — to care for and nurture young life as you look back on your own, and experience the world afresh through their eyes?

The Art of Being a Grandmother: An Incomplete Diary of Becoming is an honest and heartfelt exploration of self — as a mother, grandmother, visual artist and writer. Following her acclaimed autobiographical play, Still Life (2019) with Checkpoint Theatre, Dana Lam invites you into her world as she chronicles the process of becoming a grandparent through her art and writings. The careful interweaving of candid, meditative journal entries with stunning watercolour and ink renderings of scenes of her daily life deftly captures the unique pleasures and challenges of grandparenthood. Poignant, tender, and funny all at once, this volume will delight readers of all ages with its warmth and wonder.

“Being a mother is, arguably, a choice for some.

Being a grandmother is a decision made for you by someone else.”

A 200-page visual journal by Dana Lam; edited by Huzir Sulaiman, with curation, design and layout by Marc Gabriel Loh.

Author's Bio

She most recently wrote and performed the erotic monologue Why Not Sex in Not Grey: Intimacy, Ageing and Being as part of the Festival of Women: N.O.W. 2021, directed by Noorlinah Mohamed for T:>Works.

Dana has performed in Jerome Bel’s Gala (TheatreWorks, 2016), Joavien Ng’s Incarnation of the Beast (TheatreWorks, 2015) and Dream Country – A Lost Monologue (Singapore Arts Festival, 2012).

Outside of performance, Dana has worked as a newspaper reporter and volunteered with AWARE (Association of Women for Action and Research), serving as its President from 2000-2002 and again, from 2009-2011.

Evocative and detailed, poetic and reflective, "Shaolin and You" takes a plunge into the pugilistic and epic world of Shaolin, bringing readers on a colourful journey to discover an ancient craft rooted in history and tradition.  A tribute and celebration of Shaolin Kung Fu, "Shaolin and You" delves into its history, origins, little complexities and lessons through a delightful feast for the senses - where chapters are stuffed with snippets of art, photographs, poems, anecdotes and illustrations of all things Shaolin.

Author's Bio 

Poon Yew Fai started practising pencil drawing as a serious hobby only after entering the workforce, despite having a love for it while growing up in Singapore. He also enjoys Hong Kong action, Kungfu and Wuxia films, especially those from the mid-1980s to 1990s - widely considered to be the golden age of Hong Kong action films. Yew Fai considers his blending of graphite drawing with digital effects an ongoing personal experiment, and is never quite sure how his next Kungfu artwork could turn out. Shaolin Musings is his first self-published collection of Kungfu artworks.

　　「瀟湘」指「清深的湘水」，又是「瀟水」和「湘水」的合稱，泛指湖南。 「瀟湘八景」為平沙落雁、遠浦歸帆、山市晴嵐、江天暮雪、洞庭秋月、瀟湘夜雨、煙寺晚鐘以及漁村落照。北宋「瀟湘八景」畫題，催生了「西湖十景」、「北京八景」等各種地方景觀。

　　本書運用跨學科研究方法，探討「瀟湘」山水的詩情與畫意。作者親身探訪「瀟湘」地域，梳理宋代以降的「瀟湘八景」文本，結合豐富的文學與美術作品分析「瀟湘」山水詩畫的文學意象、文化空間和抒情底蘊，並對其在東亞的傳布和演變進行了廣泛而深入的探討。娓娓道來，和讀者遊觀雲影天光，宛在「瀟湘」畫裡行。

　　本書系臺灣學者衣若芬美術史方面的論文匯集。作者運用現代學術手段，廣泛收集相關文獻資料，從圖像、文字、實物三者的關系入手，對中國古代繪畫藝術進行了獨到的立體化研究，解釋了藝術史實際上是這三者互相影響的歷程。
