Beyond 无边 is a two-person exhibition that brings the work of Boo Sze Yang and Yeo Shih Yun together for the first time, creating a novel conversation between two artists whose work speaks to the antique – even ancient – past as well as to this metamodern moment in contemporary art. The display showcases innovative mark-making and painterly expression through the sometimes surprising use of unconventional tools and techniques.  Boo Sze Yang employs the squeegee devices you see in screen printing shops or ceramics studios to make his colorful abstract paintings. Boo uses various squeegees to spread, swirl and splash oil paint across paper and canvas. Using these tools and techniques, Boo creates marks and textured surfaces that evoke printmaking effects, blending the tactile quality of the printing processes with the fluidity of oil paint. “The Crossing #1” looks purely abstract at first glance, but can also be thought of as an abstract landscape. The slanted lines and colorful parallelograms at the bottom of the piece look infrastructural and architectural. The gooey blue and white smears that make-up the upper part of the painting appear as sky and clouds, even snow and ice. Boo’s work comments on the displacement of the natural world by urban development, and his formally gorgeous surfaces only make their content more engaging.  Yeo Shih Yun has a reputation for innovation. Her experimental ink paintings connect ancient Asian calligraphic traditions to 21st century technology, and she’s best known for utilizing mechanically designed tools such as robots and other devices as painting assistants. For Beyond 无边, Yeo deploys robots that were fabricated using 3D printing. Yeo’s artsy droids make the first random, expressive marks and designs for the works in her Beyond the Visible series. The robots’ contributions are photographed before they’re printed on transparent neon yellow fiberglass using reverse UV printing technology. The finished works are sculptural, but also graphic as well as painterly. They’re literally machine-made, but still expressive and enigmatic. Beyond 无边 offers a vibrant dialogue between the two artists as they engage viewers – and one another – in the space between figuration and abstraction. The display prompts a discussion about rethinking art categories, redefining art practices, and reconsidering the roles of new technologies and age-old traditions in contemporary visual art. Most importantly, the show creates a conversation about what painting has been and what it may become in this new century. About the Artists \ Boo Sze Yang \ Boo’s paintings deal with a broad range of subject matters, from mundane domestic objects to images of car and airplane crash-scenes, derelict interiors of cathedrals and unpeopled chambers of shopping malls. Boo treats banal objects, modern architectural interiors and destructive scenes as metaphors for the human condition. His series of semi-abstract paintings conjure a natural world gradually dissected and displaced by urban development. The monochromatic handling of linear structures resembling scaffoldings, partitions and platforms are created through the delicate process of pulling and pushing wet paints across the canvas using a squeegee. These imageries do not evoke real moments of memories but refers to a special, in-between zone of the real space and the utopia; a baffling place where reality and fantasy coexist. In his portraiture series, Boo integrates his personal experiences with everyday’s social and political events to generate uncanny and idiosyncratic expressionistic portraitures serving as comic observations in our everyday life. Boo Sze Yang graduated from the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (NAFA) in 1991; completed his Postgraduate Diploma in Fine Art at the University of Reading, UK in 1995 and received his Master’s in Arts Degree from Chelsea College of Art & Design, the University of the Arts London in 2004. \ Yeo Shih Yun \ Yeo Shih Yun (1976, Singapore) is a highly regarded Singaporean artist whose innovative approach to ink painting has garnered international acclaim. After obtaining a Bachelor degree in Business Administration from the National University of Singapore in 1998, Yeo pursued a Diploma in Communication Design at LASALLE-SIA College of the Arts in 2001, followed by the Post Baccalaureate Programme in painting at the San Francisco Art Institute in 2002. Yeo's experimental fusion of traditional ink painting with contemporary mediums such as new media and performance art has resulted in dynamic and unpredictable works that challenge conventional notions of the medium. Her unique creative process has earned her recognition, including a 2011 commission by the Singapore Art Museum and the People's Choice Award for  Conversations with trees,  which was nominated for Sovereign Asian Art Prize Finalists in 2012 and auctioned by Christie's Asia. She has also won the UOB Painting of the Year Competition (Distinction in Abstract category) twice, in 1999 and 2007. Yeo has held exhibitions in major cities including Singapore, Hong Kong, Taipei, Shanghai, Tokyo, and New York, and has completed numerous commissions, including National Gallery Singapore's  My Ink-credible Adventure  and her solo exhibition at Esplanade, titled  Chance Encounters,  in 2021. Her groundbreaking works have been showcased in  Generative Art and the Future,  hosted by Poly Auction China, and she participated in the  NFTs + The Ever-Evolving World of Art  Tezos exhibition at Art Basel Hong Kong in May 2022. Yeo was also invited to participate in the  Digital Baroque  exhibition and auction curated by 4ART NFT+ marketplace and minted on Palm network. Yeo's innovative approach to ink art has made a significant impact on the development of the medium both in Singapore and internationally. Her contributions to the art world have been widely recognized and she continues to push the boundaries of the medium with her unique approach and experimental techniques.

Great day out with the family. Recommend the fast track tickets as the Queues for some rides were long! Weather was bad in the morning so we delayed our entry and so we were in the park for approx 7 hours. Food is pricey. Overall a great experience. I wish they add a Nintendo zone to this park! My rating 7/10

The whole trip was perfect! Singapore is such a great place! Not only is the scenery beautiful, but Singaporeans are also very friendly to Chinese people! The attractions I especially want to recommend are Singapore Changi Airport and Marina Gardens, which are really amazing. The hotel I chose is also very good, and the hotel recommended by Ctrip is really cost-effective. I would also like to thank Xiaoxiao, the housekeeper of Ctrip for this trip to Singapore. She is really a very responsible consultant. She took good care of us throughout the whole process, including helping us fill out the entry form. I had any problems during the trip and helped to solve them seriously and responsibly. The airport pick-up and drop-off arrangements were very considerate, and the recommendations for eating and drinking spots were all very good. I had questions and they answered them! It was really a considerate housekeeper! Good reviews! In short, I recommend everyone to come to Singapore, it is really a good tourist country!

Singapore Zoo is well worth a visit. As one of the top ten zoos in the world, its open design, rich animal species and unique ecological experience make it an ideal choice for family travel and nature lovers.

I rarely write reviews. I have been calm for a long time and feel that I should write. It is not for small compositions, but simply record this bad night and the pit I encountered, and give tips to the later tourists and friends. I don&#39;t know if I can help you. July 17, 2025 Singapore Safari Park Night Safari Let me say the conclusion: the zoo is great, the night experience is also very novel, it is definitely a must-check attraction in Singapore, no one. The only thing to pay attention to is: tens of millions of [do not] book tickets on Trip.com . Because you may find that you have to wait two hours outside the door to enter the park; what is to take the small train to listen to Chinese explanations before dark, no matter how much homework you do, you can&#39;t think of Trip.com pit you, a pit will be a big pit; I have to stand honestly when I take a taxi from the city center, and I have to be questioned by Trip.com that we are fools and four fools. Four of us bought tickets as shown in the picture, keyword: [No reservation required] [7:15PM], it should be noted that this product contains two tickets, one [Chinese small train], and the other [entering the park ticket]. On the purchase page, you only need to choose the time of the small train, because the production The product interface clearly states that there is no need to make an appointment for admission tickets. [You can enter the park according to the time of the Chinese small train, and show the voucher to the staff]. OK, then the purchase was successful, I clicked on the confirmation form, and looked at the precautions with satisfaction, the wonderful experience of the first night tour of the zoo in my life. The big one is coming. Because there was still work in the afternoon, the four of us took a taxi to the zoo after the end. At 19:20, we arrived at the door and found that about 20 meters before the gate, five or six park staff checked the tickets one by one, and shouted at 19:15. Now you can enter the park, but when you see our ticket, the other party said a word NO. Because although our small train time is no problem, there is a line of small characters [Admission from 9:15 PM] under the QR code of [entering the park ticket], which means that the reserved entry time is after 9:15 pm. I was buzzing in my head and immediately contacted customer service: Why is the entry time for this ticket later than the small train time in the park? The customer service is very professional, and they immediately contacted the merchant. The merchant said that there is no need to check the ticket, and you can enter by scanning the code directly. I said that people will not let us scan the code step, and someone stopped it. Merchants: &quot;You can enter the park by showing them the ticket for the small train directly, without showing them the ticket at the back.&quot; Me: &quot;But people are going to see the ticket at the back now.&quot; The result is that we waited from dawn to dark, and waited until the staff at the door were off work before we arrived. Friends laugh at the merchants &quot;partly right&quot;, maybe they come after 9 pm. The customer service patiently asked me what I had, and they would negotiate with the merchant. I honestly don&#39;t have any demands, what can I have? My demands are just hanging out with friends at a zoo in once in a lifetime, and that&#39;s all.
