2 weeks holis

was asking myself if i shld cont....
the answer is yes & always a YES :)
in order to have the energy to live on
i gave myself a 2 weeks holidays
no school, no work, no interuptions
to do things i always wanted

a good read, some good sketches, few good pictures
site to visits & reviews to be written
collages to be make


tin finally got her time to go to Central Promontory Site
an exhibition site that is part of Singapore Beinnale
- Singapore largest international contemporary visual arts exhibition -

however, god din bless me a good weather
it was raining heavily
but i've got prepared an unbrella :)

The temporary exhibition space was built by Shigeru Ban, a Japanese Artist
using150 twenty feet long shiping containers donated by APL
as well as 34 ten meters height of recycled papertubes






it was a stunning site to be visited as part of Singapore Biennale
it was also the 1st time in my whole entire life
i had to walk thru a muddy pathway to reach the site



thr was a outdoor exhibition space right beside the containers
it's situated in the open space
the feeling it gives us goes with the weather - rain / shine
it was rain @ e time i visited it :)
the feeling i felt was - breezy and cold - rainy season

was@ 8Q- SAM for a SIPF talk back some time
& was impressed with e work of Phunk Studio entilted -
School





not forgetting to get involved w/ e art
some chalk drawings i left b4 i went off
pardon me cos i the name gave me a comfortable feeling
so i drew it on the dark green board with a white chalk

was invited for an opening ceremony of comtemporary young artist exhibition
@ Sculpture Square on Thursday evening
these 2 pieces took my breath away for few sec

Random Things by Natasha Wei Jun Hao



i love candles
no matter how much wax they've burn, i'll still keep them
but
I WILL NEVER POKE THEM WITH NEEDLES
i regard candles as one of the romantic objects
as they light up the darkness & bring peace
as well as the scent it give out with it's lighted up
candles are soft thou it seems to be tough outside
i felt tt my heart was poked by needles when i saw this installation


Scratching On Photograph - Condition I & II
by
Maxine Chionh



as a photographer
i WILL NEVER NEVER scratch my wonderful prints
not even getting a rain drop on them
but i was very disturb by this artist's work -.-
it gave me a new level of w combination on photography & art


after all exhibition visited in the sunny & rainy afternoon
it's time to pamper myself w/ a simple yet fabulous afternoon tea
@ one fullerton's coffee bean & tea leaf
- Belgium Coffee Ice Blend & Tiramisu -




* just for the skill of photography of cake - gimme comments :) *

holidays arent only bout exhibition visiting w/out shopping
DIASO again :) 6 wooden HB pencils for only 2 bucks
good condition w/ plastic cover to protect the tip of e pencil
the range of pencil cases are more than wat popular bookshop have
they're so so so attractive & i actually stood in-front-of these pencil cases for 5min
wat attracts me is the different design of the pencil cases being place tgt
i dun need pencil case cos i no longer uses them :)



tin always end her afternoon by watching sunset

travelling & dining needs money
spending a short holiday in SG may not need a single cent
