Was so amazed and totally blown away when I saw this work.
Such an intelligent creation, no? Using outdoor's natural elements confined to the indoors of the National Museum of Singapore, creates such a contradiction. It was a miracle to see rainbow inside a building, when I can't even catch them outdoors.

This work resembles a range of mountains – natural forms familiar in Indonesia. "Mountain is regarded as an axis which mediates between the earth and the heavens" and the work seeks to bring in mountains into our city.
Non-existence in Singapore this art work is like a breathe of fresh air.
