Han’s Shimmering Pearls a visible fixture in the Central Business District. This colourful, highly recognisable sculpture adds vibrancy to the concrete landscape. Installed in a pond, the fantastical ‘pearls’ of differing heights recall childhood memories of playing in spouting fountains. Han’s sculpture entices commuters and passers-by in its attempt to recreate a fountain’s charm and dynamic elements of play. Han’s whimsical pearls shows that abstract art can actually be relevant and add joy to the everyday lives of Singaporeans.
