COMMUNIITY ART


What is community

art?Art is the exciting and endless possibility created by mixing colour and form to create rich masterpieces.

In the same way that an oil painting has different colours and each colour has different shades, so too is our community made up of a myriad voices.

Community Art is the wonderful blend of the different shades of art and of our community to collectively form a masterpiece we can truly call our own.

FEATURE


IntroductionThe world of community art is vividly engaging and is highly established in America and Europe. It shows the participation of community groups and not just public art. Community Art looks at both outcome and process. More importantly, it brings more meaning to expression.

Involvement of sectorsCommunity can be viewed through both a macro and micro lens. In the Singapore context, the community is a mixture of the government, schools, town councils, non-profit organisation groups and the general public. This looks at both the public and people sector. This understanding omits the

COMMUNIITY ART


involvement of the corporate sector as direct participants to cushion the not-for-profit mission. There is a thin line between art for the community and pure marketing forms such as advertising. However, the complete omission of private companies will not create an inclusive society and even worse lowers quality. Hence, they should be engaged as a supporting pillar in facilitating the execution mainly through funding or initiation. There is a need to dance on this thin line that separates between advertising and community outcome. The interactivity of different sectors imitates the mixture of colours to form a masterpiece.

DefinitionSome art for community groups do not wish to limit its scope by definingexactly what community art is. We too prefer to concentrate on concentrated strategies based on demand and supply in the context of the current social or political climate. It can be said that Art is subjective and should not be defined. Nevertheless, the common understanding is that art

is either for the community, by the community, or both.

Hence although definitions often prove difficult or even trivial, we aim to explore the approach to community art.

ApproachThe approach of community art can be categorized into four aspects which are; cast, audience, message and matrix.

CastCast looks into the creator of pieces in terms of the actors, performers or curator. The conceptualising of the idea project is a subset of this category and may not be adopted for a simple reason; quality. Very Special Arts is an international example which looks at people with disabilities who create artworks. Another example includes Migrant Voices that looks into the artistic expression of foreign workers.

Besides direct involvement of the groups shared above, another avenueof engaging community groups is through consultation. In a Mural Trail at Invergordon, Scotland, which was opened by Her Royal Highness Princess Ann, community groups do not actually create the art work but rather create the content, select the artists and the stories to be depicted in the murals. This has created the term Community Artists, a recognised occupation comprisingof facilitators and painters of

FEATURE


the artwork. The community is engaged and artistic quality is not compromised. The term Art and Heritage is most prominent here.

AudienceAudience either refers to the public at large or specific groups such as within the social services sector or a particular demographic segment. The beautifying of our surroundings such as art at airports or city sculptures is contained within this segment and helps to develop heritage and culturethrough the assimilation of art and public space. However a personal view is that such pieces of public art should not simply be pieces doted about the public sphere, but rather be a representation of the community at large, that is, more engagement is needed to tie public art, to the public itself. An example of an organization that aims to achieve this is Art Outreach Singapore, which looks into the outreach of art to community. They organise tours to view artworks found in our train stations.

Many such projects also extend beyond the direct audience or thoseimmediately involved to a wider audience. In 2010, the youth Olympic Games (yOG) will coincide with Noise Singapore, a festival involving arts and youths. The synergy of such festivities and events bounce of each other creating a dynamic exuberant environment for

youths and the public at large. This shows how “audience” can at times be a dynamic term and eventually although projects may be targeted at one segment or another, community art is ultimately, for the community as a whole.

Message The message can often be issues of awareness or education targeted as any of or a combination of community segments. Art can often serve as an effective medium to deliver an important message. Act 3 conducts school performances about teenage issues through performance. Similarly, a performance by the Necessary Stage, Gemuk Girls addresses issues of nationhood through a performance where a person from a minority race becomes prime minister. Aside from art as a medium, often art can also be the message in itself, such as spreading awareness of environmental art or collaborations between sport and art. Hence art can serve as both the medium and the message providing an effective channel to reach out to the community.

Matrixlastly, the Matrix refers to the ways the different aspects of the above segments come together and the synergy of their connections. In the same way that various colours and brushstrokes come together to form the painting, it is often

COMMUNIITY ART


the dynamic inf luences of various approaches, audiences and messages that come together to form the tapestry of a vibrant and creative community arts scene. An example comes from the humble beginnings of Social Creatives itself, Creative Home, our pilot project involved painting dustbins along Orchard Road and helped spread awareness of environmental, social and community messages. Participants were the public and youths who were involved in volunteering on the ground help as well as voting for the painted dustbin they liked the most. The blend of people and messages demonstrated how the matrix can enable even a small venture to reach out and spread their message and their art to the wider community.

ConclusionThere is no limit to what you can paint. Similarly, there is no limit to how you may engage the community through the arts. The approaches above attempt to demonstrate the various facets of how community art is applied as a tool of expression and of how Community Arts represents an important cornerstone of the future arts and community scene in Singapore. //

The Man behind the Merlion

THE MAN BEHIND THE MERLION


FEATURES


There are many iconic sights in Singapore but little is known about the artists who created

them. We are acquainted with local artists such as Georgette Chen, liu Kang, Cheong Soo Pieng and Ho Ho ying but the talents behind National symbols such as the Merlion is often overlooked.

There is Thomas Woolner who sculpted the iconic Sir Stamford Raffles in front of Victoria Theatre and Concert Hall as well as Cavalieri Rodolfo Nolli, an Italian sculptor who came to Asia in 1913 with a group of Italian artists on the service of the King of Thailand to construct artwork for the throne room. He finally settled in Singapore in 1921. He was responsible for the Allegory of Justice which forms the pediment of the façade of the former Supreme Court Building (1939).

The 13-ton tympanum (inner cavity) sculpture that rests within the archway of the building was carved from faux stoneware and makes for an imposing decoration for a building that has been designed in a classical Greco-roman style. The artwork depicts Adam on the far left with the serpent, a fallen man, his back turned from the Goddess of Justice in the centre.

His imprint is also left behind on various other pre-World War II and colonial buildings of importance that include the Fullerton Building, the Tanjong Pagar Railway Station and the former City Hall.

But, we need to move on to something even bigger: The Merlion, a trademark of Singapore and a must-see for all first time visitors to the country. Just who is the man responsible for crafting the massive animal, a sculpture made from cement and so large that it had to be built on site? CONFABUlATION examines the work of art:



Artwork lim Nang Seng (Singapore) The Merlion, 1972 Cement 8.6-metre tall

Patron Singapore Tourism Board

Location There are five Merlions in Singapore which are recognized by STB.

1. The original statue at Merlion Park2. The 2-metre tall cub statue standing behind the original statue3. The 37-metre tall gigantic replica — with Mouth Gallery Viewing Deck on the ninth storey, another viewing gallery on its head and The Merlion Shop — at Sentosa Island4. The three-metre tall glazed polymarble statue at Tourism Court (near Grange Road) completed in 19955. The three-metre tall polymarble statue placed on Mount Faber’s Faber Point

In addition a recognized Merlion statue is found at the Merlion Restaurant in Cupertino in California, USA.

Emblem Fraser Brunner

Fraser Brunner was a member of the Souvenir Committee and the curator of Van Kleef Aquarium. The Merlion logo became the emblem of STB on 26 March 1964 and its registration as a trademark was finalised two years later on 20 July 1966.

By 1997, although STB has acquired a new corporate logo, the Merlion was still protected under the STB Act and use of the symbol required their permission.

On 1985, the Merlion Week was initiated by STB which included a week of celebrations, including dance and carnival events. Unfortunately, in recent times, the Merlion do not get to have a whole week that revolves only around him anymore.

Kwan Sai Kheong, Vice-chancellor of the University of Singapore and Ambassador to the Philippines.

Details such as the water-fountain and piped-music which flows out of the Merlion were added.

Conceptu-alisation of the Statue


Construction lim Nang Seng, local craftsman

In November 1971, lim Nang Seng began sculpting the Merlion statues, one larger than the other. The actual Merlion to be built was so large that it had to be built on location and required the enlistment of all eight of lim’s children, in particular Pee Nee and Pee Boon.

The Merlion and its cub were finally completed in August 1972.

Description The Merlion was officially installed at 8:45 pm on 15 September, 1972, by the then Prime Minister lee Kwan yew, on his birthday.

Minister Mentor lee Kuan yew was again the guest of honor for the official launch of the new site which took place on 15 September, 2002, exactly 30 years since it was built.

The Merlion is an imaginary creature with the head of a lion and the body of a fish. This half-lion, half-fish sculpture rests on undulating waves.

The lion head alludes to the legend of Singapore’s founding by Sang Nila Utama, a Palembang Prince who, on his arrival on the island, saw what he thought to be a lion and thereafter renamed Temasek, Singapura or “lion City”.

The fish-tail represents Singapore’s links to the ancient sea-bound island which was Temasek and its long and successful association with the sea, reflecting how our forefathers traversed the oceans to come to Singapore and our subsequent dependence upon it as a port.

It sits facing the East, aligned in the most auspicious feng-shui position as advised. An inscription reads “The Merlion has been erected as a symbol to welcome all visitors to Singapore”.

Edwin Thumboo cemented the iconic status of the Merlion as a personification of Singapore with his poem Ulysses by the Merlion in 1979. Due to Thumboo’s status as Singapore’s unofficial poet laureate and the nationalistic mythmaking qualities of his poetry, future generations of Singaporean poets have struggled with the symbol of the Merlion, frequently taking an ironical, critical, or even hostile stand - and pointing out its artificiality and the refusal of ordinary Singaporeans to accept a tourist attraction as their national icon.

The poem “attracted considerable attention among subsequent poets, who have all felt obliged to write their own Merlion (or anti-Merlion) poems, illustrating their anxiety of influence, as well as the continuing local fascination with the dialectic between a public and a private role for poets,



which Thumboo (as yeats before him, in the Irish context) has wanted to sustain as a fruitful rather than a tense relation between the personal and the public.” Among the poems of this nature are “Merlign” by Alvin Pang and “love Song for a Merlion” by Vernon Chan.

The Merlion was featured– or, depending on point of view, not featured– during the 51st Venice Biennale (2005) in the controversial work “Mike” by artist lim Tzay Chuen. He had proposed taking the sculpture in the Merlion Park to the Singapore Pavilion at the exhibition, but was refused by the authorities.

Said art critic lee Weng Choy: “Tzay Chuen’s work is important precisely because he addresses this very Singaporean problem of ‘can’ versus ‘cannot’. A personal comment by Eugene Tan, the curator of lim’s exhibition: “After the failure to move the Merlion to Venice for the Biennale, I was apprehensive that Tzay Chuen’s intended installation might perhaps be too subtle for the context of Venice and overlooked. However, I was proved wrong, judging by the positive reception to Tzay Chuen’s work. The strength of the work lies in the way it engages with different audiences through various levels. Some viewers became aware and fascinated by the artist’s intention to move the Merlion, while others were simply pleased to have found clean and functional washrooms at their disposal. In the latter, this led to long queues to use the washrooms, which attests to the success of the Tzay Chuen’s intention to challenge and break down the boundaries between the experience of art and life in a particularly pertinent and poignant way.” //

Tribute to Baharudin Vocational InstituteText:: Rebekah Anthony

FEATURE


Being one of the first ever school devoted to the arts in

Singapore, Baharuddin Vocational Institute (BVI) grew from a humble background. From various name changes over the years and starting off without a building of their own, they had to resort to borrowing premises to house their students.

In 1970, thankfully! They moved into their very own building where they housed students undertaking courses from graphic design to doll making. Baharuddin Vocational Institute was more than just a school. I say this because as surprising as it may seem now, it was the first and only school to provide art courses in the 70’s. Being the only faculty that taught students everything artistically involved, Baharuddin Vocational Institute gave birth to our very first locally taught creative individuals. These individuals such as Zoe Tay and Makansutra’s KF Seetoh were great additions to Singapore’s creative industry.

With the school keeping students well-equipped with the right tools, and fathering local celebrities, it did not remiss when it came to the standards of educators. Some may not know this, but Iskandar Jalil, one of Singapore’s finest modern

ceramics artists, who I must add or I will forever regret, played a pivotal role in the progression of ceramics art on our little island, once, taught and mentored students at Baharuddin Vocational Institute.

Because of this remarkable and significant school, a mural wall painting was created in commemoration. This dedicatory was created by Social Creatives. located opposite the MDIS campus, these two coloured murals has the effect of “popping out at you” possibly due to the nature of the green paint againstblack. With playful elements of bunnies and rainbows, it shows the vigour and imagination of the school with an artistic spin. Almost random-filled doodles filled this piece of work which was a collaboration that exudes creative expression. The artworks are two dimensional. This is to ref lect the the concept of the logo. //

In its series of 20 murals around Queenstown... During this

process, Social Creatives managed to capture the support of Keppel Coropration. Keppel Volunteers decided to lend a hand while Social Creatives’ lent them the paints and brushes. Armed with an overf low of creativity, they painted the walls with a fresh face of the Greek Goddess, Medusa. Fear not, I say “fresh” because instead of the serpent haired and stone eyed creature, Keppelites teamed up with Sg Cares to turn her into a colourful , alluring work of art. With a wide variety of bright contrasting colours, the hair of “medusa” became locks ofextensions that came to represent the various races we have. Inside each lock of hair, there are religious symbols.

Taking advantage of the open and shared space, the mural contained elements that best represented Singapore as a multi-racial society , elements such as churches, mosques and other religious places. Because of the significance of these elements, any

Singaporean who comes across this mural would most definitely feel a sense of connection with it. All our years, we have watched our national day parades, participated in racial harmony days and seen vast amounts of multi racial gatherings, it is without a doubt that Singapore is formed with much differing cultures, yet we live as one. This mural represents Singapore as, it contains the essentials of Singapore and the way we all live as one. Despite having different roots we come together as one. //

This may seem a little random-trying to incorporate sports into

The Pocket Arts Guide, but spare us a minute and we’ll show you the relation art has played in this area.

What is art? Really, to many it’s still tentative but to some and hopefully to more; art is something that brings people of all walks of life together. Should art not be used as a catalyst towards bringing greater community involvement?

Despite the vast difference art and physical exercise has become in the minds of the general public, this mural is to remind them that art could be in everything. Art is meant to depict so why not depict sports? The above mural, done by Social Creatives has taken the beauty of art and used it to portray physical exercise as both an importance in Singapore and also a reminder to keep healthy.

On 11 December 2009, this mural was completed opposite the Queens town Swimming Complex; The artist Mr. Raziz a.k.a Mr. Bombster was the art behind this mural. Together with him, a group of migrant workers actually volunteered in the production of this piece of work. When asked about how he felt working with them, he said, “It was something different working with maids. They wanted to add me on facebook. It was a refreshing experience,” The main concept

of this mural was based on the Water polo sport as it was a strong component in the sports industry during Singapore’s early years. The timing on this mural was also rather convenient and appropriate as Singapore won its bid to host the 2010 youth Olympics Games.

Also in 2009, Aljunied GRC and Damai Secondary School introduced numerous murals into the heartlands to demonstrate the youth Olympic Games. The youth Olympic Games, core values evolves around friendship, respect and excellence. These common values are prominent in Community Murals where we interact with one another. The presence of mentor artists providedbalance and quality checks on the artwork.

Mural painting needs teamwork, patience and care. Teamwork is present in most things we do as we have to work together, no matter whether you are great or not. Patience is usually the most important factor in life as patience will teach you how to be detailed and articulate when it comes to working. As for care of your work, we would have to keep our work neat and tidy so that other people can appreciate what we have done. The vast mural painting sessions have increased our teamwork to complete the mural by working together, failing as a team or passing as a team. //

In its series of 20 murals around Queenstown...During this process,

Social Creatives managed to capture the support of Keppel Coropration. Keppel Volunteers decided to lend a hand while Social Creatives’ lent them the paints and brushes. Armed with an overf low of creativity, they painted the walls with a fresh face of the Greek Goddess, Medusa. Fear not, I say “fresh” because instead of the serpent haired and stone eyed creature, Keppelites teamed up with Sg Cares to turn her into a colourful , alluring work of art. With a wide variety of bright contrasting colours, the hair of “medusa” became locks ofextensions that came to represent the various races we have. Inside each lock of hair, there are religious symbols. Radin Mas is one of the towns in Singapore that consists of mainly aging population. Through these projects, there are hopes to provide an avenue of expression and connection to our Singapore.

This is why, on 5th and 6th of December, 18 elderly and senior citizens were engaged in the development of sketches as well as outlines of the walls on which the murals are painted on. On 20th December, groups that consisted of over 250 elderly then participated in the creation of these artworks. youth facilitators were present to best engage the group and guide them to experiment their skills a much as possible but not forgetting at the same time, to make sure that everyone was having fun. It was a mass participative event that brought the people and community together through art.

Being able to connect and give these elderly a chance for participation further instills the vision that art should be able to bring both the community together for a common purpose, regardless of whether the person is 5 or 105 years old. Because quite honestly when it comes to art, we are all young and age does not truly matter.

One of the main murals created tells the story of Princess Radin Mas. Radin Mas was a young and beautiful princess who unfortunately came across an ill-fated life. She was killed accidentally while someone else wastrying to kill her father. Before death, her life was not much easier. She wasforced to wed the evil Tengku Bagus while her father was held in captivity in a well.

Because of this tragic story, this mural was inspired to create a depiction ofRadin Mas sitting far away in isolation with her own thoughts, hoping for amore fruitful and peaceful life. The body language of Radin Mas by the water shows her longing and patience, while waiting for some good to come”

The main murals artistic direction is about giving life to everything. There’s a silhouette of a man holding the paintbrush who acts as the painter, who then ignites a vast amount of colors onto the wall which signifies an explosion of energy and positivity. Overall, with all the murals combined the intention was to express creativity //

Graffiti

Well, it looks like we finally reached here; the never ending

debate between what is graffiti and street art, is graffiti really art? Does it constitute to vandalism? Before I begin, I shall firstly just provide some dictionary defined meanings.

- Vandalism is the defacement of public property.

- Graffiti is drawings or writings that is scratched, painted, or sprayed on walls or other surfaces in public places.

- Street art is any art developed in public spaces.

Many automatically think about vandalism when they hear graffiti, and this is because it is within the act of creating graffiti that shouts vandalism; to be able to spray paint something in the public eye without getting caught or seen especially by the law. This act comes off as vulgar and disrespectful. Graffiti has grown so vastly that it has gone into a different league on its own. There is graffiti as an art form, and then there is graffiti as both an art form and a way of life and a culture.

As an art form, graffiti usually consists of bright tones, textured with the effect of a spray paints. It is usually

FEATURE


bold and eye catching. It looks so bold and free that it could be rebellious and uncontrollable.

Graffiti as a culture and lifestyle is on a whole new level. To many graffiti artists the act of spray painting illegally causes a rush of adrenaline and paranoia, yet while all this is going on, there is a cloud of clarity. Because of this “kick”, many graffiti artists vandalise in order to feel this certain way. It is the angst; hate and need to rebel that forms this lifestyle. To rebel is human nature and due to this, many associate graffiti as vandalism.

Art is liberation. It is the freedom to say and do anything you want, so who cares if you are doing it at your house or at someone else’s, art should provide the freedom to express But because it has the nature to be so liberal, this is where lines must be drawn, in order to prevent chaos. It is when you choose to use your canvas as another’s person canvas, this is when vandalism is called upon.

I quote from John Fekner an innovative artist, “All art on the street that’s not graffiti”. This, I cannot agree anymore.

Because graffiti is no longer just a type of art like I attempted to explain above it has become more than that.

To directly draw the line of difference artistically, graffiti’s style is more colourful, vibrant, bold and always involves spray cans. Over the years we have all established the fact that graffiti art looks more rebellious, more careless and more jumbled.

Street art is everything that does not look like graffiti. It does not have a definite art form or style; although it has a tendency to be more structured, more stenciled upon, more careful and more illustrated. However who are we to define something that does not have a restricted meaning yet, it is still open and hence street art is still anything that may be considered art to the public.

At the end of the day, be it graffiti or street art, both eventually takes on the same direction. And that is to express something; isn’t that the basis of art?- To not just create beautiful things, but to create though provoking works that tells the truth and move people. //

Punggol Murals

Punggol was given a face lift with a serious dose of colour and vibrancy

on the 17th and 31st July. A series of 6 walls were transformed with the help of about 180 participants from Standard Chartered Bank, Temasek Poly, NTUC Fairprice and so on. With such massive collaboration, the participants walked away feeling proud that each and every one of them became an artist that day.

Age played no role in this creation. Kids as well as adults worked together to give these mundane walls life. A wide range of bright colours were injected and various art techniques were tried out. From finger painting, to spray cans, chalk drawing and paint brushes; everyone was kept on their toes and entertained as they tried out

their skills and learnt something new as they painted these walls.

Gracing the event, MP Penny low joined in by getting her hands dirty. She used spray cans to paint the Singapore flag and did not falter when it came to finger painting as many would due to its messy nature.

The main aim of the event, organized and led by Social Creatives, was to foster the importance of art within the community. Many do not see the pivotal role art can play in bringing unity and harmony. This event helped people to realize that it is within the act of creating something beautiful that brings people to unite and live harmoniously together. //

A Walk Down Memory Lane- Revisiting the forgotten

Public art is art that is specifically commissioned for a particular site and its community in mind. The works can be intended to be permanent or temporary and its form can range from mosaics, paintings, sculptures, lighting, landscape designs, textiles, glassworks, video installations, ceramics and performance art.

Introducing the artwork into the local environment creates a significant impact in terms of encouraging regeneration and enhancement of the space and creates opportunity for social and educational interaction and can even promote tourism.

Before, Singapore was earnest about public art and endeavored to build monuments and artworks that reflected national aspirations and struggles. However, by 1970-80, the task proved taxing and this gave way to private and corporate commissioning of artworks.

In the recent years, lTA has been actively encouraging the incorporation of art into their train stations (in what came to known as Art in Transit), a practice common in Europe and North America.

In 2007, a National Heritage Board survey estimated that there were over 300 public artworks on display. The earliest surviving work of public art in Singapore is a statue of an elephant, a gift from King Rama V of Thailand in 1871 that is currently located at The Arts House (side entrance facing the Padang). Sadly, over the years, not all sculptures stood the test of time and many have come and gone from our public spaces.

A Walk Down Memory Lane takes us through a handful of these works of art; some which have been removed and placed in storage, and others permanently destroyed in the pursuit of the newer and better.

cleanup of the Singapore River/Kallang Basic Catchment. It epitomizes the eternal flow of live-giving water. Meandering and in-terlocking patterns of rivers and catchments are captured on its base, whilst joyous, dancing waves, frozen in motion, portray the abstract form of mass celebration of a happy event. The waves surge forward in one direction, at a 60 degree angle in one direction, symbolizing Singaporeans striving with one common purpose towards a better tomorrow. Lights at night enliven the liquid forms with an animated, shimmering glow. At the time, it was the most expensive work com-missioned to a local artist.

Artwork Tan Teng Kee (Malaysia) Musical Fountain, 1974 Patron DBS for Plaza SingapuraLocation Previously placed at Plaza Singapura and later moved to the Marina City Park (and then removed)Description Tan mentioned in a catalogue for his retrospective show held at

Sculpture Square in October 2001 that, “the commission was sponsored by the Development Bank of Singapore (DBS). It was to be displayed in front of a shopping centre called Plaza Singapura. I studied the environment, measured the size of the proposed pool and used metal to build an abstract form, using straight lines to build a model. My concept was to join two clusters of forms: one in front of the other. From a distance, the two forms appear like natural forms, like a mountain, summits high and low. It can appear as a landscape, as a scene that seems to be changing. I wanted to convey a sense of change and development. I sent it in for the competition and the judges selected my work.”

From an exchange with art historian TK Sabapathy in 1991 –

TK Sabapathy: Are you still very interested in art in public places? Do you still think that it is relevant or important?

Tan Teng Kee: I think it is important for the public environment. First we must look for a suitable environment to display sculpture; that is important. That is challenging work for me, a big project. I just

want to mention about the first project which I did in 1974. At that time it was a closed competition and I was lucky to win the first one organized by the Development Bank. The judges selected my submission, but the managers of Plaza Singapura could not believe that my entry could be the winner; but they had to accept it as the judges had decided on it. So, the manager decided to test the entries on his own staff. Everyone including the clerks and the janitors were asked to view the first three winners and to select one from their own judgments. They were asked to cast their votes. Guess what! They still chose mine to be the overall winner. Is that not amazing?

TK Sabapathy: That is interesting and I am glad you disclosed that.

Ming as one of his students. In 1983, he drew up plans for a Space & Technology Art Centre in Singapore, and in 1991 the Singapore National Museum featured his work in an exhibition titled “Stainless Steel Sculptures Exhibition”.

Trip to the past: Changi Murals

CHANGI MURALS


Being authentic murals, it still stands today at the three-storey

Block 151 of Roberts Barracks (off Martlesham Road).

With so much past, passion and struggle behind these paintings, it is heart melting to see that the stories behind Stanley Warrens paintings were very much biblical, with messages of love and forgiveness. A prisoner-of-war (POW) during WWII, this British artillery soldier was held at Changi Prison for three and a half years.

Despite suffering from dysentery, Mr. Warren painted 5 murals all inspired by the Christian bible, any they were painted in this order, Nativity, Ascension, Crucifixion, last Supper and St luke in Prison. Each mural carried a large significance to that of the bible and its period.

There stands a total of 5 murals, each being at least 3m long. Their large sizehelped ensure near all who saw it felt the hope and compassion that Mr. Warren captured forever in paint. It would be nice to think that for many, the murals were like angels, watching over prisoners in otherwise trying, andoften hopeless circumstances.

We wonder what really sparked someone off to paint in such conditions. Well, could it be the therapy art can

give when in distress? Could somehow the continuous brushing take away troubles and relieve our soul? Or could it be the way it can bring vast amounts of people together? - People who for 3 and half years awaited their deaths. This oeuvre of Mr. Warren provoked other POW’s to risk their lives in order to obtain the materials such as paint in order to create these works of art. This brings up the question, was art worth risking their lives for? To them it was an obvious yes. They were at the point of their lives, where art was all they had to give them hope.

Because these murals consisted elements of peace and love in a place where that was hollow, the impact of these murals not only gave light and optimism, but it changed the way the POW’s lived. It gave them sanctuary and comfort in death. Something that all the richness in the world cannot buy.

This leads me back to the significance of what art can do, and the impact it could have on people. Mr Warren took on a bold move by creating these murals, Singapore should too. Despite the fact that the art scene has been growing, we still lack in public art. Our streets aren’t paved enough with art and something should be done. //

CHIJMES MURALS


The above artwork is probably one of the major murals done in Singapore. le

Mur lion; The lion Wall, portrays the myth in the imagery of a lion and its struggling journey towards finding a better world. Stretched across the walls on Brash Basah Road estimated to be about 125 meters, it was apparently assumed to be the longest wall mural in Singapore.

This piece of mural has a mixture of both Asian and French elements. Designed by French artist, Christophe Tissot, he creates an image that speaks both traditional painting styles of France, yet a rich inf luence of Asian imagery.

The grand opening incited roads to be closed and brought about a guest list of at least 500 and the presence of Mr David lim, Minister of State (Defense and Information & the Arts) and the French and the Swiss ambassadors. //

Bras Basah

Named after the 1815 Battle of Waterloo, Waterloo street is now

known for its rich housing towards the arts. With pre-war shop houses and bungalows this strip creates a great picture for any architect and allows any individual to fully immerse themselves into the vast sea of the arts.

If you wake up and suddenly feel like dancing or painting or even sculpting Waterloo Street is the place to be. Clustered together is the Dance Ensemble Singapore, Singapore Calligraphy Society, Sculptor Square, ACTION theatre and Young musician’s society.

Filled with much heritage and culture around the area due to the many religious landmarks along the street, Waterloo street crosses paths with Middle road and Bras Basah road.; areas where the art scene is also thriving. Most known for the young art community that is probably gathered due to the stature of NAFA( Nanyang academy of fine arts) and Lasalle-SIA college of the arts, this area is creating a profound arts identity for themselves.

To further enhance this area as a hub for Arts, Culture, Learning and Entertainment three wall murals have since been produced and unveiled along Waterloo Street. These murals were a collaborative effort from the students of

NAFA and Lasalle-SIA and URA ( Urban Redevelopment Authority).

Located at the boundary wall of Stamford arts centre, the first two wall murals located at the wall of Stamford Arts Centre, were painted by URA and Lasalle-sia students. The art direction for these two murals was to bring out the unique blend of architecture in the area. A significant amount of different colours were used to represent architecture and rich cultural heritage which is prominent with the many religious buildings in the Bras Basah area.

The third mural, which was produced by NAFA, is meant to depict the challenges women face in our society. The site specific mural, which stands next to the SCWO Centre further instills the message.

The presence of these three murals creates a more distinct and unique character for the area and further enhances the district as an arts hub.Waterloo street is definitely a bridge linking everything pertaining to the arts. //
