Artist statement

SHORT SIGHTED

It is a small world,
after all humans are here
to mingle and play.

Cityscapes we built
from rock, steel, glass and what not.
Display of living.

Urbanites care-less
and people tend to forget,
we live inside it.

Trees are fallen for
the sake to stop birds' feces
on some fancy car.

Lovely waterfalls,
simply by convenience
trash by litter-bugs.

It is what it is;
the short sightedness, which will
cost our future.

A small world indeed;
the uniqueness to be seen
and cherish by all.

A series of light installations & sculptures made from rejected & recycled PET bottles.

Fascination with bioluminescence in the abyss,
It’s a deep blue world we landlubbers rarely see.
Mystical realm that most of us have given a miss.
Yet, amazing creatures rule the dark depths of the mighty sea!

SALP CHAIN, 2009

In response to the problem of plastic waste in our environment, each part in thousands of plastic drinking water (PET) bottles is transformed into individual light sculptures and an installation. The idea of maintaining the inherent quality of the material and employing low-embodied energy in the process of transformation is emphasized when recycling these PET bottles. In the same spirit of reduction, these sculptures also consume less energy by using energy saving lamps and LEDs.

Turning everyday mundane waste objects into mysterious and ethereal delight.

The Artist: Mah Su Sim

Working in the field of landscape design has over the years nurtured my passion for designing, whether for work or leisure. I find the natural environment a treasure chest of design sources and inspiration bursting to enrich our lives. This inspiration spills over into my luminous sculptures, which radiate as abstract representations of natural forms that exist as blueprints of the world we live in.

JELLY FISH, 2009

The plastic mineral water bottle is undeniably one of the most ubiquitous examples of consumer waste today. Recycling exercises for these bottles into other plastic wares are mainly carried out on a commercial scale by manufacturers. However, at the opposite end of the scale, the consumer can also do his/her bit for a greener environment by cultivating a more eco-conscientious attitude. Thus, this project is aimed at re-purposing plastic mineral water bottles into artistic yet functional light sculptures while still maintaining the inherent quality of the material throughout the crafting process. By applying basic manual crafting skills using domestic tools and stationery, we aspire to generate worth and ethereal charm out of the mundane plastic bottles.
