After lunch at Love Pal Cafe, on to Round 2 – SAM@8Q.
At the Singapore Art Museum.
When you combine deep, thought-provoking installations, photography and an hour and a half of walking around, you naturally end up with very hungry people.
Singapore Art Museum at 8Q. For the young and young at heart.
An exploration on the things that make a country.
First visit to the art museum since I came back. There are some things that are just special simply because they are Home.
An art work in the form of a video installation.
Sitting alone in that room, watching the images for almost 20 minutes. Listening to the narrator’s subdued and unclear articulation. Trying to decipher his accent, yet also just submitting to the lull of his voice. Contemplating on the content of the film. Contemplating Beethoven, as his music was used. I felt deeply in touch with myself.
So that is what Art can do.
When I went back to the gallery a week later, the exhibit had ended. I did not get to see the rest of this exhibit…
Being able to wander around museums and explore cafes with friends who understand you is truly a wonderful feeling.

What are our conditions for being here on this planet?
“Weight of History” exhibit at the Art Museum.
A thought-provoking journey –
Makes one ponder about what makes us what we are.
As burdensome as “weight” sounds,
Would we be less anchored without it?
