Let's Pay Our Homage to Dear Old SAM

No, Sam is not our dear friend who had graduated from ITE. It's SAM to be exact...yep, Singapore Arts Museum.


Our eyes are like the windows to our soul and this is best described on what I observed during my visit to the SAM on the 15 October 2010. A group of journaling club members led by Ms Pamela Koh went for an outing to SAM located at Bras Basah. Though, it was a short trip, the experience certainly broadened my perspective towards the art paintings.

It’s my first trip to SAM. I was looking at those beautiful masterpieces done by the famous artist from both local and foreign country. There, we were not allowed to take any photos with flashes as the masterpiece had been highly protected by the security.

Then, we went on to the Learning Gallery where there were loads of interesting exhibitions put up by the creative artists who visualize and brainstorm their great ideas about the everyday objects and were then translated into artworks in the gallery. This is where the artists have portrayed the things we know and sometimes take for granted in a different light, making us think twice about their function and their relation to other objects.


To all the readers out there, I would strongly recommend to visit the arts museum as seeing is believing a picture tells a thousands words.
