The Singapore Art Science Museum

The Art of the Brick exhibition certainly displayed a new dimension of art. At first glance, artworks seemed as though paint was the medium. However, after closer scrutiny, tiny, near invisible lines would be revealed. These are one of the very few telltale signs that the art pieces were actually made out of Lego bricks. 

What most intrigued me, would be the human sculptures. Every detail was taken into consideration, thus adding up to the textures of the human face and body. There was a sculpture titled 'Disintegration'. The whole lighting effects, as well as how the various pieces were placed helped create the image of a man's body being slowly broken down into the basic building blocks of a human. Ironically, the Lego bricks are the basic building blocks of the human sculpture. 

However, one particular Lego sculpture struck me, and that would be "yellow". It is a sculpture of the upper body of a man, made up of yellow bricks. It sounds rather ordinary, except that it is not. Where it's stomach was, is now a dark cavern, with yellow bricks, representing the body's inert, pouring out from it. 

Well, as they say, pictures speak louder than words, I shall now let the images do their work for me.
