the brain trust

Singapore's Today newspaper ran a short piece on Han Sai Por's new sculpture at the Defense Science Organisation HQ. I quote the story in full:

"A new sculpture at DS National Laboratories in the Science Park pays tribute to Singapore's home-grown scientific and technological minds.


Unveiled by A*STAR chairman Philip Yeo on Friday, it was designed by local sculptor Han Sai Por, who is famed for her many stone sculptures. The work is made of granite obtained at Mandai Quarry, and took a year to complete.

From one giant granite boulder, Ms Han sculpted numerous "brains". each piece was intricately crafted to reveal its individual characteristics."
