Have You Seen The Floating Baby?

There is a floating baby in Singapore and I kid you not!

Look, this is the photo I took. It's actually a huge sculpture located at the Meadows in Gardens By The Bay. Can you see that the baby is floating in the air?

Weighing at about 7 tons, this huge piece of art seems to defy the laws of gravity.

But if you look carefully, the baby is not really floating. One hand is actually resting on the ground although you won't notice it at first sight. The artist had skilfully balanced the heavy sculpture on just that one hand alone. Pretty amazing, no?

Anyway, this floating baby sculpture is called 'Planet'. It is the works of British artist Marc Quinn.

If you ever visit Singapore, don't miss this amazing piece of art. Remember to snap a photo of the floating baby with the famous Marina Bay Sands in the background!
