Marc Nair – Writers Fortnight
Marc Nair is a poet and photographer from Singapore and he has published around 7 volumes of poetry books. He is also the co-founder and principal photographer of an online magazine called Mackerel. He mentioned that he usually writes against the issue he is writing about, for example, he usually writes against Singapore, and he finds it easier to write against the city because he knows it well. With his photography, he gets a feeling before a photo has ‘happened’ to tell him that a good photo is ‘on its way’. He also looks for a small image that contains possibilities of a story.
