i Light Marina Bay Singapore Part 2

In this post, I'm going to share with you the light art installation I saw at Route A where you start your journey from DownTown MRT. I shared the Route B art installations in my previous post here.

It took us about 40 minutes to view all the art light installations for Route A where art installations are displayed in the Marina Bay area till 30 March this year. It took us some time as we waited for the crew to remove excess water at The Pool exhibition as it actually rained earlier in the evening. 

Take note that if it rain, the art installation will be cordoned off for safety purpose. 
On Earth Day, 29 March Saturday, the light will be turned off from 8.30 pm to 9.30pm.

i Light Marina Bay 2014 will end on 30 March 11 pm.

A11 **Insert Caption Please by Ryf Zaini from Singapore. It is basically a giant speech bubble that displays thoughts and messages. 

A12 The Guardian Angels by Maro Avrabou and Dimitri Xenakis from Greece and France respectively. I like the concept of this art installation. " The Guardian Angels The Guardian Angels echoes the preservation of the garden and plants and by extension, nature. It highlights the role of the human and pays an indirect tribute to gardeners and artificially created nature. The work also points out that the growth of plants and trees is only possible with the contribution of three natural elements: light (sun), water and earth. The transformation of an everyday industrial item into a poetic object stops and challenges the passer-by. Unexpected and surprising, these watering-lanterns are a gesture of protection to our environment, but also a suggestion to give a second life to an object after use."

A13 Fool's Gold by Vertical Submarine from Singapore.  This is a huge arrow-shaped neon light signboard with the words " No Gold Buried here". It is related to a Chinese idiom about a fool who wants to hide his gold, but reveals its hiding-place by putting a sign on its burial spot.

The Pool by Jen Lewin Studio from USA. This is an interactive display where visitors can step on the circular light step and trigger change in colour. 

Visitors especially kids had fun creating special light effect by running and hopping on the pool.

JouJou-Ours by Uno Lai from Taiwan. Colourful Giant bear heads is inspired from the artist's childhood memories of hugging soft toys to sleep. 

A8 #WeHeartLight is a collaboration of 200 Singapore students who were guided to design simple red light boxes and the two artists from United Kingdom with the aim to educate the students on sustainable future.

A7 Mimosa by Jason Bruges Studio from United Kingdom. This art piece is inspired from the plant mimosa. This is interactive light display which move when you move your hands above the lighting as there are heat sensors. 

A4 Happy Croco by Bibi from France. It is a 20m long crocodile sculpture assembled with traffic cones and other objects.

iSwarm is a sea of luminous tube of cell light that react to the presence of visitors. This is a collaboration work of Singapore University of Technology and Design and Phillips Lighting.

iSwarm is one of my favourite lighting installation.

A2 The Wishing Tree symbolise the positive hope and dreams of visitors.

 The WonderFull water and laser free performance outside Marina Bay Sands. I was glad to catch the show at 9.30pm.
