This year at Art Stage, their 4th edition, they have brought in 8 countries and regional work. They call this year the Best of Asian Contemporary Art. 8 countries includes: China, Central Asia, India, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and even Australia. And the SEA platforms includes artist and galleries from SG, Philippines, Thailand and Cambodia.
For the benefit of those who wish to know but don't dare to ask: From Wiki: Contemporary art is art produced at the present period in time. Contemporary art includes, and develops from, Postmodern art, which is itself a successor to Modern art.[1] In vernacular English, "modern" and "contemporary" are synonyms, resulting in some conflation of the terms "modern art" and "contemporary art" by non-specialists.
So I was lucky enough to be part of the event(not displaying my art) to check out some of the art work with my pretty part-time sidekick Axixe.

The exhibition was massive and we were all tired out after a day of walk but it's all worth it! I don't think I will be able to showcase all of the work on my post but I've noticed a few trend just from this exhibition itself. Like the usage of skulls, butterflies, replacing human's head to other objects etc. Here's a few piece of the art that I really like! *Sorry for the poor quality of images, nothing beats seeing the real thing yourself!

| Some argue that this photo is "sick" or "disgusting" but to me I feel that it's very peaceful. Like it's finally over. End of suffering. This is by Nge Lay. |

| Space BM. The burst of energy in this display. From Korea. |
 |
| Nothing to do with religion but this is always something that I find peace in. It's like Mona Lisa but not really. |

As silly as it seems, this has to be one of my favourite. I always love something like this. Remember Mojoko?

| My version of it. heehee. |
 |
| Going back in time! |
 |
| This is from Yavuz Fine Art which is located in Singapore itself.. This instalment looks way better in real. It's like 3D without computer. |
 |
| Really like this one too! From Galerie Du Monde by Zhong Biao from China |
It's a shame I didn't have the time to go back on another day due to other commitment but I must say Art Stage is really one of those exhibition that you should go especially if you are someone like me who doesn't have the time or too lazy to travel from places to places and visit all the museums.
