Amalgamate Anthem

The Amalgamate Anthem (Sculpture: AEP)


This was an artist-run workshop with Singaporean sculptor, Zainudin Samsuri. 
In early 2002, 15 Sec 3 (Year 10) students were selected to participate in the Sculpture enrichment workshop. After being exposed to the surrealist imagery, the pupils were taught how to investigate their sub-conscious mind and breathe their newly explored imagery into interesting drawings. The pupils were taught the techniques of aerated concrete carving. The carved images reflected much of the pupils’ diverse personalities. Interesting images ranged from the Ketupat to just plain playful cats.

The installation ‘The Amalgamate Anthem’ birthed as the result of these pupils’ hard work and pure sincerity. It is also a celebrated fusion of different nationalities, races and talents in this increasingly globalised world.

‘The Amalgamate Anthem’ addresses the realisation of emerging raw artistic talents across neighbourhood schools. Up close, you can sense the tremendous appetite of these pupils who have never been to the art museum or experienced real contemporary art in any manner, attacked these concrete blocks with vigour and passion. Their lives can never be the same, their senses have come alive.

Much of their work explore and extend on the theme of humanity and with the different diversities, they form a metaphoric mindscape that can be reviewed as a story, a mystery, a riddle, a vision, an understanding, a nightmare, a reflection, a form of violence, subversion, philosophy, memory and even theatre. ‘The Amalgamate Anthem’ shapes itself as an awakening vibration to those who are still asleep.

Appt With Nature

An Appointment With Nature (Sculpture: AEP)


This environmental art project was executed in Yusof Ishak Secondary during March - April 2001. A class of Sec 3 Express pupils was brought to the Bukit Batok Nature Reserve to do some observational drawings and take digital images of the site. The pupils were told to pay attention to their environment by doing:

Focus your
attention on your
own situation, from
second to second,, relax
your mind, let your attention
move freely without trying to notice
anything in particular. Discover what comes to
your attention of its own accord; be
aware of the stream of fleet¬-
ing sensations of touch,
smell, sight, hearing,
etc. that impinge
upon you.

Taken from Open University’s Art & Everyday Life

The students had to develop ideas on how to interpret art in relation to the environment. The pupils were also instructed to refer to environmental artists such as Andy Goldsworthy and Martin Puryear for further reference.

The outcome was surprising and exciting as the students worked hard to produce interesting pieces of work reflecting their creative decisions. I would like to thank Mrs. Doris Lim, Mrs. Song and pupils of YISS Sec 3 E 2001 for this memorable experience.
