Arts in the City at Esplanade Theatre Basement 10 May to 23 June

I always feel happy everything I visits art museum, see beautiful or thought provoking arts. Arts in various forms just make me feel so good and happy. 

Most of my friends don't enjoy going to museum  well except two friends who also enjoy beautiful arts. 
If you want to see and experience arts, you can always go to Esplanade Theaters on the Bay. Every few months, they will change the visual art displays at the concourse and basement area by artists from the regions. 

From 10 May to 23 June, there is this Hokkien Rhymes. Hokkian is the largest dialect group in Singapore Chinese, followed by the Teochews, Cantonese and others dialect groups. 

In Singapore, Mandarin is taught in school and our government discourages the Chinese from speaking dialects as they think it is not easy to master three languages English, Mandarina and dialects. Chinese Radio and TV shows are not allowed to use dialects. Thus, the younger Chinese generation don't understand their own dialects. 
The purpose of the art work as explained by the artist is to preserve the selection of Hokkien rhymes before they disappear.
