Artist

Jing Xuan Teo & Marina Sano

Born & raised in Singapore, Xuan is a writer, editor and pop-culture enthusiast. You will most likely find her having an identity crisis by the river at Carlton Gardens or frantically cooking up Singaporean dishes to remind herself of home.

P.S. It’s pronounced sh-wen.

Marina grew up in Singapore, and moved to Melbourne for uni. Here, she faced the identity crisis of a lifetime when trying to decide if being half-white still meant she was a POC (hint: she is). She has a BA in English Lit and half a Master’s in Publishing & Communications.
