A QUIET HELLO TO DAVID
June 7, 2008
Was on my way to the History&Living gallery at the National Museum for community service when I thought I’d take some pictures of Titarubi (Indonesian artist)’s batik-covered David.
As I was about to snap, this Japanese little girl toddled over and gently lay her hand at the base of the fibre-glass sculpture before her mother tugged her away.
For a brief second, it was a lovely picture of innocence solemnly greeting a giant.
I’m not a fantastic photographer by any means, but for me, it was a perfect Kodak moment.
