Between sea and sky by Oliver Strebelle
Between Sea and Sky by Oliver Strebelle is a monumental sculpture first placed in Singapore in 1986. It stood directly in front of the Marina Mandarin Hotel. Rounded, organic lines give the outdoor work a form that connects sculpture with its urban surroundings.
Marina Centre Holdings commissioned the piece, reflecting Olivier Strebelle’s interest in large works shaped by nature. The Brussels-born Belgian sculptor drew inspiration from earth and snow, translating their softness into broad, flowing forms. He helped found Les Ateliers du Marais, a Brussels centre associated with the Cobra movement. His international career also included teaching at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp and receiving the Prix de Rome for sculpture in 1956.
