Sentosa Island Lights is a series of installations by local artists in collaboration with a company here helmed by the former sticker lady who was commissioned by Sentosa to hold the exhibition. Even though she hated that nickname, and being in trouble with the law, years down the road, she got offers such as this that gave her the boost to show off her creativity, legally of course. It was quite near the Sentosa Beach station so it wasn't too far a walk. Though there wasn't a lot of the installations like the annual iLight Festival at Marina Bay, they are still interesting enough and instagram worthy too.
Her story is an inspirational one for creative artists who often struggle to make it in Singapore as arts isn't quite widely acknowledged as other parts of the world. However, slowly, we are progressing and the moral and financial support given by the government and other agencies help these artists to make a name for themselves and still be able to survive in Singapore mostly from the commissions they make from big name collaborations.
Here are some of the pics taken on that day which we actually managed to still go even though we were pretty late actually. Good thing, we managed to travel back in time to Vivocity in time to catch the train back home.
