imeless Beginnings: A Clock Tower Tribute to New Life in Singapore (2023)
Country: Singapore
Media: Rendering, Generative AI
Year: 2022
Timeless Beginnings reveres the birth of Singaporeans and celebrates the essence of self-love. It conveys the significance of cherishing one's unique time clock, free from the shackles of societal pressures and judgments. The clock strikes hours to commemorate the arrival of newborn Singaporeans in an average of 11 minutes. It walks in a non-linear way, accelerating and then decelerating, implying the curve of Sinagpore's birth rate over years as well as the ebb and flow of individual's life.
The artist was inspired by Oscar Wilde's quote, "To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance", encouraging audience to embrace themselves wholly and unconditionally.
