Time for Light to Night Festival 2024!

#cny2024

With a new year comes a new Light to Night festival version 2024. Unlike last year, I was able to visit the indoor showcases part of the festival and ongoing exhibitions inside the National Gallery. If there’s one place in Singapore I’ll never get tired off, it will be the National Gallery. The amount of times I’ve visited the gallery is still not enough honestly.

We visited the festival on a Sunday, hoping to take part in the free civic building tour but I got the dates mixed up so no tour for us. The free tours along with other programs are also part of the festival with their respective specific schedules.

The indoor light displays and showcases were amazing. I loved the human silhouette in motion in the middle of the gallery or at the atrium. Some of the exhibitions we visited inside the gallery are the art of South-east Asia, a tropical exhibition with live birds, and the light display at the Rotunda with an emotional reunion-themed showcase.

The outdoor light displays did not disappoint. I loved the music for the light display at the facade of National Gallery, it’s different from before, engaging. I feel like the stories projected were much clearer. The clam-like installation at the field weren’t really a showstopper. I also loved that there’s still a cat-themed projection this year. The projection at the Victoria Theatre will still be my favourite every time.
