| The first art installation "Room of Mind" by Iqi Qoror from Indonesia |
Later, I did some research and found out that the artist, Iqi is trying to portray how we humans often automatically jump from one state of mind to another based on our external situation and conditions. He believes our mind has lots of thinking and plans get wasted, just like a crumpled mess of paper that goes straight to the bin. Through this artwork, Iqi thinks that we need to rest out mind, so we can be more aware of our thoughts and actions, otherwise our brain will self-destruct.

| Egg spotted from The Great Egg-Venture 2016 |
Four eggs have been specially selected to be showcased in the fair which reflected a range of different artistic ideas. This just looks like a bigger version of the full months red eggs which gave me an idea, maybe next time we can draw some special designs on those full months red eggs and sell them as a set?
ARTWORKS THAT IMPRESSED ME
Artworks are priced between $100 and $10,000 with the aim to make art as fun, accessible and affordable to the mass market as possible.

| Tape Art by Max Zorn |
 |
| Artwork created from brown packing tape |
Often referred to as "tape artist", I was amazed by the live demonstration of how Max Zorn uses ordinary brown packing tape as his medium and a surgeon's scalpel as a brush instead of the usual paint and paintbrush. Art comes in different form and this is one really unique idea to create art pieces.

Beautiful artwork by Christian Develter. Notice how the women's faces all have lines on them? What inspired him to draw the lines on the women's face is actually by the real Chin people living at the border of China and Myanmar. The lines on the women's faces are used to identify which tribe they actually belongs to. Lines were tattooed on the girls faces the moment they reaches puberty age.
The real life photos.
An augmented reality performance called "You Know JS". YOU KNOW JS was first performed in KULTER, Amsterdam in Oct 2015 and then at SingaPlural Festival in March 2016. For this live performance, we have to use an iPhone app to view and interact with the live performance. We only get to know there's an app for this after the performance was over.
Realistic 3D artwork. The fishes were all painted on.
Reminds me of a friend's pet at home.
Different faces.
So nice to look at.
Sculptures :)
Ending my post with this pretty and colourful heart. Would be very nice to display it at home. These artworks are so beautiful, each with their own stories to tell. I'm not good at drawing and acting, so for now, I shall just stick back to doing my colouring project.
XOXO
