我们的故事

我们如何展现多元文化并建立联系。

SunneFolc 始于我们两位创始人（杨晟与 Pearl）对艺术与文化的热忱。SunneFolc 的所有项目都充满了两位创始人对于文化遗产与艺术的热爱。疫情时期，两位创始人通过网络直播，发现了艺术与文化的市场处于未开发状态。他们在网络的探索经验与发现，促成了 SunneFolc 的建立。SunneFolc 致力于以新颖的方式，建立一个传统与现代的桥梁，把处于全球各个角落的艺术文化爱好者连接在一起。

常见问答

为何不直接从事与文化遗产相关的行业？

最直接的回答就是与文化遗产相关的行业薪资普遍不高，尤其是在新加坡这么一个历史不算悠久的国家，与文化遗产相关的行业并不发达。我在大学原本的打算是进入学术界，成为学者，但随着我对文化研究的探索，我更珍惜能够做出独立、自主的选择，这也是我没成为学者的重大原因。

虽然没进入学术界，但我对艺术与文化的热爱并没减弱，我常常会在博物馆当导游，以后也希望开一个文化咨询有关的机构。我每天都会提醒自己，若你做的是你热爱的事，你没有一天是在工作。
