SINGAPORE - Ms Yuniarti remembers well the first time she held a digital camera.

On Monday, the 40-year-old Indonesian domestic helper was elated to see the photo on display at Bayfront MRT station. During the launch at Bayfront MRT station on Monday, SMRT Corporation group chief executive officer Mr Ngien Hoon Ping said: “Through the lens of our migrant workers, we hope to bring everyone closer together, engendering a better understanding of people from different cultures and background.”

Holdinghands Studio started in 2021 to uplift under-resourced communities through photography. It provides free camera rental and training for domestic and migrant workers like Ms Yuniarti. “We also hope that the exhibition will help to encourage dialogues, challenge stereotypes and foster inclusivity.”

He is also a volunteer trainer at Holdinghands Studio, and has shared not just his knowledge but his cameras and equipment with other migrant workers.
