These colorful figures were seen loitering outside the ION Orchard luxury shopping mall in Singapore.
They’re everywhere
Singapore is dotted with plenty of statuary. During my wanderings around the city, I came across statues on the sidewalks, in parks, along the riverside, high in the hills, and even in the far “hinterlands” in the north.
In with the “IN” crowd
Of all the statues I saw, these 6 figures at the end of the upscale Orchard Road were the most colorful, and maybe the most representative of Singapore residents.
While most other statues are of historical figures, these figures fit in well with the contemporary Singapore crowd. They appear vibrant, vivid, dynamic, sophisticated, and urbane.
