The opening night of IMPRINTS at red dot design museum was a sight to behold. An exhibition organised by Yesterday.sg and the Singapore Contemporary Young Artists (SCYA) society, the profile of the crowd that had gathered was varied to say the least. From curious school-going kids, to trendy teenagers, to hip seniors, they all gathered for one common purpose - to support our young contemporary artists who are at the forefront of our nation’s growing arts scene.

Visitors were treated to nostalgic free gifts such the tiny balloon kits made up of gum-like material and a short straw, our shiny I Love Museum badges and I Love Museum lanyards. We spotted quite a few visitors proudly parading them as they went around the exhibition space (thank  you!).

At first, the crowd was scattered with excited voices contributing to an atmosphere that reeked of anticipation.

Nonetheless, as soon as the announcement was made that the live performance piece by Kelvin Atmadibrata was about to begin, the limelight was duely given to him as people gathered around. The thought-provoking performance undoubtedly sparked off intensive debates about its profound significance.

Many capped off the night with the yummy food and beverages catered specially in accordance to the general theme of nostalgia. Chin chow anyone?

For those who missed the action - don’t worry.

The exhibition will run till 11 May.

Admission to IMPRINTS at red dot design museum is free.
