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.

Location – Orchard Road, Singapore, on Google Maps

Can you imagine at night, drunk, walking around and jumping into one of those?

Several times, I got fairly drunk in that section of town. But I never met any of these figures as I stumbled my way home.

Well, at least I don't remember doing so ...

Very nice street art! I think all the big cities should do something like that to make people feel happier in the city jungles. Just see one of those on the street and you won't stop smiling for sure :)

Yes, all cities should do similar. Singapore a very attractive city, not only for its lush greenery, but also for its artistic architecture, it well-maintained (renovated) historical buildings, and its sculpture and art that beautifies the city scape.

beautifully captured!
what I like the most is the different color of people,
Why I'm saying it different colors?
let me explain it to you.

There are different kinds of people in the world, some are good and some are bad, Some have both the qualities. these images are giving me the same idea of those people.
