MOTHER & CHILD 36
Material: BronzeLocation: One George Street Duration: Permanent Collection: CapitaLand Limited Dimensions: 0.7m x 1.45m x 0.54m
Nestled among the greenery on the pavement of One George Street is a gem of a sculpture by Chinese artist Han Meilin. It depicts a mother lying on her back with her child leaning against her body. The form is stylised; the mother’s lankiness contrasts with the child’s chubbiness. Care was taken in placing the sculpture atop a rock near a reflective pond, as if mother and child had just gone for a dip and are now sunbathing. This sculpture presents a refreshing image of love amid the bustle of the city.
