INDIAN SETTLERS
Material: BronzeLocation: Telok Ayer Green Duration: Permanent Collection: National Parks Board
In the 19th Century, Indian and Chinese immigrants shared Telok Ayer Street. By placing these sculptures in close proximity, artist Lim Leong Seng mirrors Singapore’s present-day multicultural landscape. Lim uses figurative bronze sculptures to similar effect, preserving the past and making it relevant to the present.
