The Makers Project explores the “art” in artisanal with seven talents at ArtScience Museum.

A bottle of the honey-coloured single malt scotch whisky from The Balvenie brings to mind many things: Deeply inquisitive discourses in the study. Pre-dinner catch-ups with treasured friends. A celebratory toast to good news.“Made by heart,” the folks at The Balvenie would say, drawing your attention to its heritage of dedicated craftsmanship led by its malt master David Stewart.

She could have been describing the spirit of craftsmanship at The Balvenie. Indeed, she admitted: “I enjoyed the stories behind The Balvenie’s range of expressions. The stories of the craftsmen and how they’ve poured their heart and passion into their craft have really inspired me.” This unfolds in many ways. Fern Chua’s Freedom and Fluidity displays the beauty of batik, set abloom with Malaysia’s national hibiscus flower and Rajah Brooke butterflies. Vu aka Caubetho presents a bold statement with his fantastical Mice Wedding – a folk story retold through classical Vietnamese art and pop culture in a media mash-up. Thailand’s Phannapast Taychamaythakool takes a pilgrimage to find “that special something”, in a piece given whimsy with Victorian elements.

At every point of the journey, the distillery has kept the process on site – making it the last of its kind to do so. Keeping the single malt whisky truly handcrafted is a team of passionate craftsmen, dedicated to retain tradition to give The Balvenie its complex profile.
