I was so happy yesterday in Biennale,
Yet, I'm so upset now.

Its something so sudden.
Just a call away,
I heard the cries..

Please take care my dear ones.
Let it go,
Let it go....
Its part of life,
We still have to move on....

May she rest in peace.

I convey My Deepest Condolences to my 4th Uncle and family.

Went to Singapore Biennale 2008 today!

Was Interesting !
Went to 2 locations, City Hall and South Bridge Development.

City Hall:

I got to see all these Amazing art pieces!!!!!

ONE
Artist: Ben-David, Zadok
Title: Blackfield 2008

It is a sand field covered with thousands of small metallic plants.























































































It is 2-sided.
Black and Coloured.

Black portrays a dull and burnt landscape whereas the coloured side shows vibrant and cheerfulness.


TWO
Artist: Han, Jong-Gun
Title: Evolutional Mythology, 2007

Han Jong-Gun has created gourds that resemble human faces!

There are 2 types:
1) Bottled like a specimen
2) Dried up on the shelf

The Artist took a year to nurture and shaped them everyday till it shows human resemblance.
There are 4 different facial expressions-Smiley, Angry, Happy and Sad.





































































THREE
Artist: Lee, Jane
Title: Raw Canvas, 2008

It is an abstract painting using Acrylic paints to texture itself to look like a fabric cloth.






































FOUR
Artist: Pimkanchanapong, Wit
Title: Singapore, 2008

The floor features the scale map of Singapore, the artists encourages the public to write their message on a memo and stick it onto the map.

See mine!





































FIVE
Artist: Rhee, Ki-Bong
Title: Bachelor - The Dual Body, 2003

This book of Philosophy is thrown into water, it is made of leather to endure long periods in water. The book looks like it is dancing suggesting that the Western logical thought is having fun.
(its kinda chim -.-")




SIX
Artist:Varini, Felice
Title: "Drill Hall", Singapore Biennale 2008

It is an illusions that occur in three-dimensional interior spaces.























































The walls are painted in broken lines, however, the artist has made it such that by standing on a single point, the lines looks connected and portrays a 2D look.


SEVEN
Artist: Zhan Wang
Title: Stone to fill the Sky, 2001-2008

It is an oddly shaped steel rock with reflective surface and it is suspended in mid-air.
The artist's work betrays one's common sense and logic.
(How can a big heavy rock float in the air?)

I'm guessing its some sort of magnetic force that is causing it to float. humm..




YUP!!

Those are just some of the artworks displayed.
Visual art is so COOL~

hee! Hope to go for such event again =)

Sleeping time! Night!
