wanted to do a post of the recent outings to the museums i visited. 🎨
first exhibition i attended was the Yayoi Kusama exhibit at the National Gallery last Wednesday.
here are some photos
 |
| entry ticket with the stickers |
there was quite a crowd as it is currently in the middle of June holiday.
but it was a enjoyable experience
 |
| pork cutlet rice set |
the serving was so huge, but really good. pricing is really affordable too.
before the outing, i had lunch at Raku Raku Izakaya
haven't worn these shoes in a very long time
 |
| mirror room lights |
we only had 30 seconds in the room. really hard to take good photos
 |
| iconic dots |
really like the weather that day, it was good.
 |
| the background art work for the image used on the ticket/banner |
 |
| flower tree |
it does make it look surreal with all the dots
 |
| another shot of the hard working pair |
 |
| gintama |
really, it's literal translation is silver ball
before entering the room there was a sign that said "Please do not touch the balls"
 |
| the room was really large and had a high ceiling |
the marbled pillars were very nice to look at.
after the exhibition we went to look at the pop up cafe and souvenir shop
 |
| paperweights |
 |
| kusama insipred floor |
 |
| paper folded globe |
octogon shaped if i remembered correctly
really cool
 |
| novel idea |
one of those mystery books that you can choose randomly so you don't judge the book by it's cover
 |
| installation at one of the play area at the Children Biennale |
i think for such installations, videos do more justice since its using the lights and reflection
 |
| ramen |
the soup was so good!
sanji ramen
 |
| night sky along the river |
ended the night by going to Esplanade and catching a free performance and then eating yogurt from milk and honey co.

Last Sunday I went for the Joseon Korea exhibition at the Asian Civilisations Museum
it was raining a lot that day but it was still a fun time at the exhibit
 |
| from across you can faintly make out the words Joseon Korea |
 |
| entrance of the museum |
 |
| the robes worn by the king |
 |
| the queen's robes |
there were scheduled guided tours around the hall with native speaking guides
 |
| 竜が我が敵を喰らう！ |
this should be the look of the silly noodle dragons owned by the shimada brothers
after the Joseon Korea exhibit we went to check out the Ghost Nets of the Ocean
there were hanging installations made by fishing nets
 |
| turtles |
 |
| baby turtle |
 |
| i wanted to bring one home so bad |
 |
| coming through... 🐙 |
 |
| the shadows cast by the installation is so pretty |
and that is the end of this post on my museum tours the past week.
😏 hopefully i can do more of such every year to come.
