ASEAN Sculpture Garden: Concrete Crescent
This sculpture is at the apex of the sculpture garden. I understand that crescents are important in Islamic imagery, and are parts of the flags of Singapore and Malaysia. But would you want this one dominating the horizon?
The artist took a naturally graceful shape and turned it into something that looks like it came from a PlayDoh extruder. Or maybe a pasta machine. Good thing there are trees around it, or the highest strategic peak in downtown Singapore would be too obviously surmounted by a piece of elbow macaroni.
Aha! It’s a salute to macaroni and cheese!
