There is something seriously wrong when art tries to be more than what it should be. Or when it is specifically restricted. Especially in lalaland.Here is a climbing structure put outside the Red Dot building. Interesting enough as a piece of art. All steely and football-like. Nice. Till you notice the signs that reads "please do not climb". Aiyoh. It is a climbing structure for logic's sake - it says so on the description!
Wonder what happened to the first person who swung from it? Wonder if it is illegal? It is after all near the ex-Maxwell Road police station. It is just so ironic that after someone does something nice, we seek to protect it from what it should be. Sort of like keeping children away from playground because they might scratch the paint off the poles.
Goodness and sigh. And wtf.
Are the tourists laughing? Surely now the gahmen will do something? We can't be so anal right? Plus it's a design winner. Alamak.
