had some yong tau foo before taking a bus down to smu to meet up with fairy and yellowzebra and wonka dude and fairy's friend Yael
disappointing man. no titles no labels. no justice done to the artist who created the works. after hearing what the owners had to say about works put up in the furor space, i understand why the works in general are of low standards. mostly, works being put up are very underdeveloped. it seems that the arists don't push themselves to break the glass ceiling because there is no glass ceiling.
intepretation of underground is off. and it is so singaporean to just use a certain name to describe something that the word doesn't define- resulting in being slammed in debate. to me underground art is art that is taboo to public and requires a secret space for a niche to be put up for. your work is not underground art only because the place is not very well publicised and it just accepts young artists works just because they;ve got no other avenue to exhibit them because they are amateur works. like what one of the peoples from the floor said during the discussion- it seems like anyone can be artists and you don;t have to go to an art school to produce an art piece.
i certainly agree that the idea of art by most people is at its innocence. i myself is one of them. and i blame it on education system of this fifth world that i live in. governed by academics which art is not part of.
blah blah blah
writing this all in point form. no time. alot of things going on keep forgetting stuff.
