Singapore Contemporary: A World of Art

I’m not sure where the week went and then I realized I haven’t posted anything this week.  Ooops. I haven’t been at home much so sitting down to blog has been a bit of a challenge.  And I’m definitely not super organized where I have my posts written up in advance.  Oh well! But hurrah, its Wednesday and the weekend is in sight!

I know that it may seem like all I do is eat and eat and travel, but sometimes, I do like to get my culture on.  I admit, it doesn’t happen as often as I would like, but hopefully this year I’ll partake in more cultural events. Are you into the arts or the theater at all? img_2036

img_1995So last Thursday, Chun (that’s his above not impressed I wanted to take a picture of him) invited me to go to the Contemporary Art & Exhibition event being held.  It was Art Week in Singapore so there were quite a few events going on around town.  I would have liked to have gone to Art Stage, but the day my friend had tickets, I couldn’t make it, so I jumped at the chance to go to Contemporary.  img_1989 img_1992img_1990I always have aspirations of buying art, but let’s face it.  A lot of the stuff you see you either don’t understand and couldn’t fathom buying it, or if you do and you really like the piece, the price tag has a few too many zeros on the end.  Well, this time around, the things I did like and could potentially see hanging up on my blank walls had a couple too many zeros at the end.  Le sigh.  One day I will be able to just buy something without having to worry about the price.  One day. img_1998 img_1997 img_2010 img_2014And there was some cool almost print like stuff, but not.  And with colours, so nothing dark and moody. Can you tell how knowledgeable I am of the arts? HA! I should definitely stick to my day job!  And with colours, so nothing dark and moody. I really liked the white one with the gold owl.  I think it would go great in my nonexistent boutique hotelimg_2007 img_2008 img_2011And there was more playful stuff, some of which I’m not sure which room I’d put them in.  I saw the Pug and thought of Military Wife!  It may have to go in the really cool cocktail bar I don’t own? What do you think? img_2021 img_2016And then there were other mediums (Wow, I really lack the ability to talk about art!).  Can you spot the celebrities? img_2006img_2005Some other interesting interactive displays/pieces.  The mask thing is made out of acupuncture needles. It’s pretty neat! img_2031 img_2025 img_2027And lastly just some other random stuff that caught my eye. img_2019 img_2022 img_1993So how’s the week going so far?

Always looking for the next adventure; the next thrill. One day she will find home, most likely where she started off. But even then that's a convoluted answer!

Hi, I’m Julie

Hi, I’m Julie

Welcome to Jewels Wandering! I'm a serial expatter. Wait, is that even a word? I have been moving from one country to another since I was born, having most recently moved back to New York City from Singapore. We all have a story to tell and mine has definitely been an unconventional one. Let's be friends!
