Great to know that my work in the safe hands and discerning eyes of @louabelasamson and @michelangelosamson. They are installing a selection from their collection at @helutrans_artmove from 16 Sept to 17 Oct. Please take some time to have a look! #SafeEntry is a national digital check-in system that logs an individual’s visit to venues; it was introduced during #COVID19 in #Singapore. The service is a means for contact-tracing should an outbreak in a location occur. These QR codes are invisible interfaces that govern physical access to public spaces. In 2019, the @singaporeartmuseum (SAM) closed for renovations. During Singapore’s 2020 Circuit Breaker, the museum turned the hoardings that covered its construction into a commissioning space and approached Chong to develop an artwork specifically for this space. One of the two works that Chong developed was Safe Entry (2020) — enlarged repetitive black and white QR codes that spanned the entire perimeter around SAM, and along Bras Basah Road. While this artwork recalled the QR codes of the SafeEntry programme, it did not lead to the national registration system. Rather, it led to an hour-long video of a walk that Chong took at Changi Airport Terminal 2 on YouTube as part of the series @ambientwalking. #AmbientWalking is a depository of videos hosted on YouTube of long walks shot with a DJI Osmo Pocket. Each walk takes place in a city of personal significance to the artist. During COVID-19, Ambient Walking garnered new meaning. Chong provided public information about the #CircuitBreakerSG, advocated for people to stay home and offered them a series of walking tours of Singapore that they could access from the safety of their homes. The #ChangiAirport Terminal 2 video that Safe Entry directly links to was posted on 30 April 2020 — the day before the terminal closed for renovations. Filmed on 16 April 2020, the 10th day of the Circuit Breaker, it was also a document of the airport at a time when international travel ground to a halt. Chong’s video is eerily silent because the airport is empty. It was the sound of global capitalism faltering.

#realmoodsketch Another #noartsunday . This time I started on two pieces but couldn’t ring myself to completing either. So back to my reserves of #abandonedartpiece done during #lockdown #circuitbreakersg in 2020. The shortened 30-second video of the process is in the story. . . . . #sketchingdaily #peoplesketching #peoplesketches #lifeofanartist #artjournal #doitfortheprocess #contemporaryart #sketch #sketchbook #cubistart #drawingoftheday #instachallenge #instagramartist #sketchoftheday #cubismart #paintingdaily #instagramartist #sketchoftheday #cubism #digitalpainting #ipadpro #procreateart https://www.instagram.com/p/CTe0RH7vMyc/?utm_medium=tumblr

#realmoodsketch Had a busy day at work. The brain is too tired to sketch. So I looked through some sketches I did during #lockdown2020 when I was myself only working twice a week - courtesy of #circuitbreakersg . These cubist sketches were done from photos of Lewis chessmen pieces on display at museum in Scotland. Also know as Uig chessmen, the original pieces were carved mostly from the walrus ivory during the 12th century. . . . #cubistart #cubism #illustration #instadraw #expressionism #art #instaart #sketchbook #instaillustration #contemporaryart #modernart #peoplesketching #lewischessmen #uigchessmen #sketchbook #abstractart #usk #dtiys #caricature #comicart https://www.instagram.com/p/CPTIHYlHR6z/?utm_medium=tumblr

#realmoodsketch If you have seen my previous post, I mentioned about doing sketches of photos I saw of people in #lockdown2020 when I was myself only working twice a week - courtesy #circuitbreakersg . Most folks were at home. This was the 2nd #sketch I did on same day. It showed a little girl deeply focussed on what she’s doing. I highlighted some areas to signify hope despite the bleak situation. More than a year has passed. We are still in the shadows of the pandemic. . . . #cubistart #cubism #illustration #instadraw #expressionism #art #instaart #sketchbook #instaillustration #contemporaryart #modernart #peoplesketching #lockdown2020 #urbansketching #urbansketchers #usksingapore #sketchbook #abstractart #usk #dtiys #ipaddrawing #procreateart #caricature #comicart https://www.instagram.com/p/CPK7f7-HiGH/?utm_medium=tumblr

#realmoodsketch It was around this time last year. We were in the midst of our #lockdown , which we named #circuitbreakersg . Most folks were at home. I went to work twice a week. At other times, I #sketch a lot. There was a whole series of photos I saw on the internet that showed what people were doing at home. I drew and painted from what I saw on the screen. This one showed a bored lady sitting on her toilet bowl. Some friends have asked about my methods. It was a little hard to explain. I discovered that #procreate actually recorded all my strokes and can produced them as video. So if you’re interested, flip to the right, and you can see from the unedited video how the lines and colours were done at one go with almost no erasing. I was doing 3 such pieces per afternoon. Some didn’t work out and remained in the WIP folder. . . . . #cubistart #cubism #illustration #instadraw #expressionism #art #instaart #sketchbook #instaillustration #contemporaryart #modernart #peoplesketching #lockdown2020 #market #urbansketching #urbansketchers #usksingapore #sketchbook #abstractart #usk #dtiys #ipaddrawing #procreateart https://www.instagram.com/p/CPGEVcqn5Dx/?utm_medium=tumblr

Looks like it’s another lockdown all on my own this time around. We were lucky to have had each other’s company during two lockdowns in SG and UK last year. Brunei has zero community cases in the past year and SG was doing well....no one saw this coming! Hopefully #circuitbreaker2 or whatever you call it doesn’t extend more than 21 days. But from what we’ve learned from 2020... let’s prepare for the worse and hope for the best 🤞 #ldr #longdistancerelationship #loveisnottourism #circuitbreakersg #lockdownagain #staystrong #togetherwecan #morecheesyhashtags https://www.instagram.com/p/CO4WGKDN3_w/?igshid=1s1uhuuhjpajs

Other than Tan Tock Seng Hospital 🏥, Changi airport ✈is where the biggest cluster is right now, followed by ICA & Pasir Panjang terminal. Several students tested positive were linked to private tutor at tuition centre as well. The current situation has caused some panic buys 🛒due to people have become increasingly concerned with the covid🦠 situation, & the government has tightened phrase 2 with heightened alerts imposed more stringent measures reducing the number of visitors 👫 allowed to visit a household from 5 people to 2 people per day from this Sunday 16-May till 13-June. ❌ F&B outlets will not be able to serve in-house dining🍽, including hawker centres & food courts. All F&B will only offer takeaway & delivery. Working from home 💼will be the default at workplaces. Due to this, reducing the number of individuals visiting a house from 5 people to 2 people is likely to impact the physical house 🏠viewing activities. For showflats, the maximum number of individuals per group is 2, including any salesperson or developer’s staff & the viewing is strictly by appointment only, no walk-ins allowed. Thus, we may need to be better prepared for virtual 🌐viewings in case the situation doesn't improve & we may have to go back to viewing the house via zoom instead of seeing the house via physical viewing. #singapore #singaporean #covid #circuitbreaker #circuitbreakersg #quotes #dailyquotes #ronloh #bedokhomes (at Singapore) https://www.instagram.com/p/CO3D2YfH2yT/?igshid=s2a1jpdi4q5o
