Ever wondered about the collections that form a museum? How are these collections acquired, curated, and archived– and who are the people behind this? Join us for Behind the Museum, a series of conversations between NUS Museum staff and the NUS community to find out more.Bridging Collection Histories and Access – with Zinnurain Nasir and Eugene KohIn this instalment of Behind the Museum, join Assistant Curator for the Singapore Collection, Zinnurain Nasir, and Faculty Engagement Executive, Eugene Koh, as they explore the evolution of NUS Museum’s Resource Gallery, reflecting on its historical development to its present-day curatorial practices. Their discussions will explore the principles guiding collection access and how the gallery facilitates engagement with students and researchers. Key themes will include the decolonisation of museum collections, the influence of founding curators Michael Sullivan, Lu Yaw, and William Willetts, and how their philosophies shaped current practices. Additionally, the conversation will address how temporality is integrated into the collection's narrative and how educational strategies can leverage the Resource Gallery to bridge gaps in academic discourse, especially in Southeast Asian history and art. The Resource Gallery at NUS Museum continues to serve as a platform for both historical and contemporary dialogues, fostering interdisciplinary connections and reinterpreting past curatorial lines of thought. Free NUS Museum postcards will be given out at the end of the programme! Meet Zinn and Eugene!Zinnurain Nasir (Assistant Curator for the Singapore Collection) (Right)Zinnurain Nasir (Zinn) is an Assistant Curator at the NUS Museum, where his research focuses on interdisciplinary explorations of Nusantara textiles, Jawi-script magazines and the microhistories of urban spaces. His work navigates the transversalities and temporalities of materials such as textiles, highlighting the deeper connections between objects and the discourses that surround them. In his writings, Zinn emphasises the relationships between materialities and art in the context of Singapore and immediate broader world, advocating for a shift beyond the traditional perception of objects and art as static entities placed on pedestals. He seeks to uncover new ways to engage audiences with the narratives that these materials carry. Zinn's broader interests include examining the role of technologies in curation, exploring how digital tools can democratise access to museums and engage wider audiences. Through his work, he aims to make the museum experience more inclusive and accessible to often-overlooked communities. Eugene Koh (Faculty Engagement Executive) (Left)Eugene is a Faculty Engagement Executive from the Outreach team at NUS Museum. Having graduated with a degree in Theatre Studies from NUS, his interests lie in the storytelling potential of interdisciplinary explorations, weaving and synthesising empathetic responses with structured research and analysis, often in consideration of multiple perspectives and diverse sources of knowledge. For him, the Resource Gallery serves as a compelling starting point to delve into the history and functions of the Museum, as well as facilitating conversations with researchers and faculty members to embark on potential research directions. Join Zinn and Eugene as they share their perspectives in curating and creating access to NUS Museum's Resource Gallery. About the Resource Gallery:The Resource Gallery functions as an open-storage display of selected artefacts from the Museum’s collections and their beginnings. Objects are organised to accommodate their material categories and classifications. Highlights include classical sculptures, miniatures and modern paintings donated by the Indian Government to the University of Malaya in 1959; and objects collected by early university curators in Singapore including Michael Sullivan, William Willetts and Lu Yaw forming the seed collection of the University. They form the categories of South and Southeast Asian art, Southeast Asian ceramics and Chinese ceramics. The Resource Gallery is open to the public during the Museum’s opening hours.

最小的環球影城可是是東南亞唯一的環球影城！！大家來新加坡還是需要來一趟。差不多有十八個遊戲，目前最新的就是小黃人。最刺激的是human和cylon過山車，如果你有勇氣的話。排隊時間都要40到50分鐘，所以要玩完全部遊戲，需要一開園就入場。裡面售賣的食物有點貴，出院了就不能再次入院。好在到處都有免費的白開水機器。

遊覽新加坡和海灣邊的花園就像根本不去新加坡一樣,它是全球最受歡迎的必遊之地之一,老實說,值得一遊。參觀和探索花頂和雲林大約需要4個小時,從那裏你可以在海灣的花園周圍散步,直到音樂表演時間。

與野生動物園和夜市一起獨特而美麗的體驗,但人多的夜晚很難看到動物,白天參觀了亞洲雨林野生動物後有點多餘。對於45美元,這2個小時的訪問不是錢的最佳價值。

這次旅行真的很享受,價格值得,推薦你去那裏參觀。
