Bahrul Anam Bin Musta’Ein
Anam Musta’ein is a Singapore-based interactive artist whose works revolve around self-expression and catharsis. As a child, he draws and paints as a form of escape from troubling thoughts, living a thousand lives in reimagined spaces. With a background in illustrations and animation, he hopes to tell stories through alternative media with themes that explore kin, romance, and companionship.

Final Year Project(s)
‘Reduction’ is an interactive narrative of the self circumscribed by the notion of social connections. Employing Irwin Altman’s onion analogy with the use of Russian nesting dolls, the artwork aims to peel the many layers of the self to reveal its core through the artist’s personal experiences. The interaction includes opening and closing the dolls to create combinations that activate different stories.
