Chinese puppetry is a tradition that is slowly losing ground and becoming rare in Singapore.

The faces and colours of these puppets, together with the intricate details of their costumes has always fascinated me, not to mention the skilful art of manipulating a puppet by the puppeteer from above to bring each puppet to life.

Thus when I come across this rare performance near where I lived, I know I have to capture some photographs of this intriguing craft!
