In it’s fifth year, Pink Dot Singapore is about supporting the freedom to love, regardless of gender identity and sexual orientation. The yearly campaign video, directed by award winning film-maker Boo Junfeng, always makes for a great emotional roller coaster. Here’s this year’s video, with music by Singaporean singer, song-writer and composer Dick Lee.

Much like painted petri-dishes, artist Tania Blanco’s surrealism tinged paintings tells the story like a series of ellipses.

The body of SLEEP-DRUNK VADEMECUM is made up of a large set of rounded painting formats. It is an open project still in process that started in the middle of 2008. Medical instruments, high precision techonology, scientific devices, anatomical models, clandestine laboratories and human representation become the object of study and thought. The bizarre represented objects reflect a mixture of past and future, and an ambiguous clinical atmosphere flows in them. On many of these painted surfaces, a soft cool-cold gradient isolates the represented elements and gives a non-gravitational character to the compositions. The project is based on a choral visual basis. The groups of images altogether represent the discourse, giving great importance to the different parts that give sense to the work as a whole.

Continuing on the trend of chairs that seems like artwork, or was it artwork that performs like chair? Either way, the Spike chair by Alexander Lervik challenges that notion with a seemingly impossible-to-be-comfortable chair that by all accounts, hugs your each and every curve.

Based on a simple message of “You are more beautiful than you think”, Dove created a campaign based on how you see yourself, and how others see you, visualised through the trained hands of an FBI sketch artist. The results are astoundingly poignant.
