All we need is love

Love is such a broad concept. It can be anything we interpret it with. It can be used to express feelings to another person and an interesting subject matter. It is synchronized with something good: when we love we feel good.

Love is very powerful.

In this artwork, "I Love You" (Social Scultpture) after Joseph Beuys, love is expressed through the universal word. Arabic letters are made into symbols and artfully hanged in the Esplanade Lobby, Singapore.
Arahmaiani's works are often judged as political art as it gives statement to the current issues and crisis in the area.




War arise everywhere; war between countries, war between culture, war between ethnicity.

Love can heal.


So it is an artist like Arahmaiani who is bold to spread the answer to what we all are suffering from.
