βmy second time here. went for the sg art book fair as part of a friendβs birthday celebration and it was really nice that it was more spacious and less packed compared to last year. i got this piece, which was super cute. i would have loved to visit the other installations but it was getting late. generally this place is quite out of the way.. but its definitely easier with the existing bus stop and what seems like an upcoming mrt station too. cant wait to visit to see other art exhibitions again.β

βWhen feeling overwhelmed by the demands of work, a visit to an art museum can offer a welcome respite. The serene environment and the beauty of the exhibits provide an excellent opportunity for mental rejuvenation. Exploring different artistic expressions can help shift your perspective and reduce feelings of stress. Taking a moment to appreciate creativity and craftsmanship can be incredibly calming. This peaceful setting allows for a quiet escape, fostering a sense of tranquility and well-being.β

βMade it to Singapore just in time for the last day of the Impressionist Exhibit. What an amazing display of works by the best! Degas, Monet, Renoir, Cezzane. And it was beautiful curated in 3 sections on the 3rd floor. The lag out of the museum has a nice flow and the staff is very friendly and helpful. Itβs an absolute must visit. The location also gives you views of the iconic skyline.β
