S98XXXXXX is an art book that seeks to shed light on the experience of receiving inpatient mental health treatment in Singapore. Through the use of metaphors and documentations of various memorabilia accumulated over the years, S98XXXXXX offers an insider view of the struggles and triumphs of one's journey through mental health treatment. The book is less of a criticism of the system and more of an attempt to bring to light the humanistic side of mental health treatment that is often forgotten.
