A limited-edition print depicting the Singapore Malay village or also known as "kampong" in the Malay language. "Berkampong" as a verb means to gather or to come together.
The last native Malay kampong can be found in Pulau Ubin and Lorong Buangkok. A traditional kampong house is typically made of thatch- or zinc-roofed wooden huts. If the kampong house is located near an estuary, sea or river, it is built and rooted with strong stilts.
