The Zou Place

Describe one of Han Sai Por’s sculptures.

Shimmering PearlsMixed media installation by Han Sai Por, located outside capital Land Tower.

     Located at city district of Singapore, Shimmering Pearls was made from glass and steel, dimensioning 20 by 10 metres. The installation consists mainly of colourful glass globes that were raised high on steel stands over a water fountain. Size of each glass globe varies, and the colours on each glass globe were basically monochromatic, with random dark strokes that made up to no specific pattern. Green, red and yellow appeared most often on the lollipop-like glass globes. It is hard to recognise what those glass globes resemble, although from the signature of the sculptor, we know that the installation was inspired by shimmering effect of water. The glass and steel materials used reflected the shimmers of moving water underneath, and probably suggests an imitation of natural movement in art form.
