Sculpture, Granite and stainless steel

Artist

Han Sai Por (b.1943), Singapore

Location

Ascott Raffles Place Singapore Level 1, Singapore 

This trio of sculptures exemplifies Han Sai Por’s exploration of coupling stone with stainless steel, allowing these materials to encounter each other in a dramatic way. Han often uses simple elementary forms in her work. Here, a slab, a drum and an egg-shaped block, all polished granite, have streaks of mat stainless steel expressed in the form of liquid dripping down, providing a sharp contrast with the static stone. There is a sense of anticipation of what will evolve.
