This 3-Dimensional Chinese Calligraphy art, named “Spring Coming”, by Chua Boon Kee, was on display at the Esplanade. Using intertwining grapevine branches, the artist transformed the 2-dimensional Chinese words, 春晓, into 3-dimensional sculptural form. The words simply signifies the arrival of spring – which is also what marks the Chinese New Year celebrations.
This visual art is on display between 12 Jan 2009 – 22 Feb 2009 at the Esplanade main hall. In case you are wondering, Warden and I could not make out the Chinese characters

I also can’t make out the characters…cos that’s art and I’m not in the same “frequency” as the artist… ;p

Dora, sometimes I just look at art and wonder at the creativity, hard work and time invested by the artists. I might not need to understand it, but yeah, it will be great if we can all be on the same “frequency” as the artist

I was there too. Many people were trying to guess the Chinese characters.
