We visited the Artscience Museum to see the exhibition ‘The Deep’. This is a collection of extremely rare specimen of deep sea creatures, accompanied by amazing images and films. There was no light apart from the colourful images and the dimly-lit animals in their glass boxes in order to make the visitors experience the blackness of the deep oceans.
There was also a fun part where visitors could decorate a pre-cut papermask to look like a monster of the deep. People of all ages where happily engaged in that task.
The museum also has a permanent exhibition on 3rd floor (no entry fee) depicting the history of Singapore with the help of the headlines of the newspaper The Straights. This exhibition is also well worth visiting in order to comprehend many of the unique special features of today’s Singapore.
