Text installation in bus shelters at various locations of Singapore. Dimensions variable. (Set of 3)
Set plainly within the confines of the ubiquitous bus shelter advertising display, this text work appears stealthily in three different iterations and locations along the #175 bus route; prompting reflection on notions of impermanence and change, and on the poetics of everyday public spaces. Considered with the elements found at each site, the texts may be read as an objective campaign statement that suggests encouragement and affirmation; an incantation of hope and wishful thinking; or as a reminder and warning of a volatile and ambiguous future.
