First Generation,
2000
artist: Chong Fah Cheong location: Singapore River, behind Fullerton Hotel patron: Far East Organization and Singapore Tourism Board |
| Interesting contrast: the sculpture empodies a behavior that would not be possible in this place, in so many ways. Hygiene, public order, etc...Chong Fah Cheong has shown himself interested in such questions before - he did a series of sculptures that could be read as ironic representations of Singapore's public benches. |
