Since beginning of august there are beautiful sand sculptures to be admired in Zandvoort, a beach town in the Netherlands. The sculptures are part of the European Championship Sand Sculpture Festival Zandvoort 2014.
Selfie Sunday #2 - Light Painting by Charlie Lim
As I said in Selfie Sunday #1, ‘every picture tells a story’. Let me tell you the story behind the following picture. One day my friend Sabine Fink, a talented photographer, asked me to attend a special event that evening. She had done and successfully finished a training in Light Painting Photography by famous […]
Motel Mexicola. Bali. Mexican kitsch galore.
Remember how I told you about Salty Seagull, a wonderfully kitschy restaurant in Seminyak, Bali? And how I immediately fell in love with that place? Well, the people behind Salty Seagull have another restaurant in the same neighborhood, named Motel Mexicola, which I fell for equally hard and fast. I am not going to repeat […]
Selfie Sunday #1 - Haw Par Villa Singapore
Selfie Sunday is a new serie on the blog. Not perse every sunday, and not perse a ‘real’ selfie (taken by myself). Weird definition of series and selfies you have, Curly! Yeah, I know;-). Let’s just say that you will find a picture of me here regularly on sundays. A picture with a story. Today we […]
5 amazing outsider art places
I love art!!! Not so much the elitist and intellectual kind of art, but more street art, murals, and outsider art. The latter also referred to as ‘Art Brut’ or ‘Raw Art’. Galleries tend to intimidate me or make me feel uncomfortable. The approach and look of many galleries makes the art seem distant and […]
Fred Lives Here. Singapore’s funkiest furniture store.
Singapore has a few fantastic stores with cool furniture wether it be contemporary or vintage. The funkiest one must be Fred Lives Here at Orchard Central. No, Fred does not live here, nor is he a real person;-). Not only do they carry the coolest brands, but they let one of my favorite local street […]
Sultan Arts Village. Hidden find in Kampong Glam.
No, it is not a big deal, Sultan Arts Village. Just a handful of art and retail spaces and galleries. Yet it has a distinct cool vibe, with it’s colorful walls, graffiti and murals. It’s thanks to those walls that I stumbled upon this tiny cluster during one of my walks through Kampong Glam. Otherwise […]
Art Fences. From ugly construction fence to street art museum.
Since the new neighborhood Digital Media City (DMC) was going to be a construction site for many years, Seoul City chose to turn the almost 7.500 meters of construction fence into street art. The area around our hotel: construction sites all around. Artists were contracted to make art on the fences, not just by painting […]
Digital Media City Seoul. Architecture, art and media.
The first time we went to Seoul, we stayed on the ‘other side’ of the river in the Conrad hotel in the IFC. Right next to Frits’ work, but far from all the attractions. Not really a problem, since the subway is connected, as is a huge shopping mall with ample F&B options. The hotel itself is […]
Salty Seagull. Bali. Crabs and ribs, quirk and kitsch.
When we stumbled upon restaurant Salty Seagull in Seminyak, I thought I’d died and gone to heaven. This colorful and playful street side front drew me right in. It is a big place, indoor and outdoors. It happens to me from time to time, that I come across a house, a restaurant, a hotel, a place, […]
