Hermès - The Gift of Time (Singapore 2012)

ABBEY: The third chapter of Ecclesiastes on the Holy Scriptures tells us that there is time for everything. Hermes tells just like that in their exhibition call The gift of Time. It is currently displayed at Old Railway Station in Tanjong Pagar. It ends August 12. It shows timepieces made from bags, pieces of tables utensils, and even water. Also it gives a hint the humble beginnings of the brand. It teaches us to cherish the time and savor it. When was the last time we were excited to set our footprints in the end of first snowfall or appreciate the silence when the vacuum cleaner was turned off?

WILL: The traveling exhibit that was started in Hong Kong now stepped-in at the shores of Singapore. As one of leading brands of bags and fashion, Hermes presents the Gift of Time Exhibit in the historical Tanjong Pagar railway station. As we enter the old railway, we are very delighted that Hermes open this exhibit to public for free and installed their arts at the place who holds many memories of Singapore. 
     There are 7 rooms with different designs with a colorful and informative insights. The Hermes really portrays how the time played a big role to their company.  
     Remember Hermes represents by a horse and at the first room, there is a sundial and in the middle is a horse, as they shows that time is eternal. Just go round and round. 
     As we enter the second room, one of their usher approached and gave us a pouch and told us to keep all our watches and all the devices with time inside to fully enjoy the exhibit. The second room was full of quotations that will made me think, how happy to live our life once we achieved to do those phrases. 
     Now entering the third room, there's a saddle and a pole...a pole that is huge (taller than Abbey) that I really can't imagine any horse can surpass that by jumping over. 
     4th room, displayed some cup and saucers designed by Hermes with a spinning top-like that represents balance. 
In the fifth room, they show off some of their famous bags with golden clutches and some swatches of different leather formed as a bird. The imaginary time was in the 6th phase. 
    Seventh is the most attractive, I can say, playful imagination indeed. 
    As we went through these rooms, facts by facts we understand how to appreciate the time. This is the most valuable gift we can give to every people in our lives.
