Picture a day (A Short History of Man and Animal)
From the Singapore Art Museum Odyssey exhibition
I view this work as an outcome of the failure of saving the earth from global warming. I believe that the artist creates a double imagery of a whale's skeleton and human rowing a boat.This is a reminder to spare a thought in saving the earth through a guilty conscience approach.The artist provides a visual example to make it more realistic of the outcomes that may occur. An analogy I wish to point out is the whale's skeleton. The whale's skeleton similarity to death is an outcome of Man's irresponsibility in looking after the environment. Another would be the whale's spine looking like a group of men in a boat.
