Gardens by the Bay

Gardens by the Bay plays host to Impressions of Monet, a first-of-its-kind, multi-sensorial exhibition centred on the art, life, and gardens of French Impressionist painter Claude Monet (1840 – 1926). Experience the exhibition’s two distinct but complementary aspects – Impression of Monet: The Garden and Impression of Monet: The Experience – in one location, the Flower Dome. 

• Impressions of Monet: The Garden

Location: Flower Dome

Opening Hours: Fri, 12 Jul - Tue, 17 Sep 2024 9.00am - 9.00pm

The Impressions of Monet: The Garden floral display presents landscapes that reflect scenes of Monet’s renowned garden in his home in Giverny, France, which features prominently in many of his paintings. Enlivening the display are recreations of Monet’s iconic pink house, scenes from the house’s adjoining garden Clos Normand, and the Water Garden, complete with the distinctive green Japanese bridge often associated with Monet.

The scenes from Clos Normand and the Water Garden are brought to life with a vibrant, thoughtfully curated plant palette that includes flora similar to those found in Monet’s original gardens, such as hydrangeas, weeping willows, digitalis, daisies, delphiniums, and geraniums. Water lilies – the eponymous subject of one of the artist’s most renowned works, the Water Lilies series – also debut in Gardens by the Bay’s floral display for the first time at Impressions of Monet: The Garden.

• Impressions of Monet: The Experience

Location: Flower Dome

Opening Hours: From Fri, 12 Jul 2024 9.00am - 9.00pm

In an inaugural collaboration with the Royal Embassy of Cambodia in Singapore, Orchids of Angkor Wat in Cloud Forest puts the spotlight on the beauty of Cambodian orchids and showcases why they captured the imagination of the country through time, as well as intrigued the outside world. Orchids were revered by the ancient Khmer Empire as symbols of nobility and hallmarks of religious beliefs, and even feature in carvings at Angkor Wat. The floral display features a stunning collection of orchid species native to Cambodia as well as their hybrids, set against the dramatic backdrop of Angkor Wat. Amidst the landscape are local wildlife such as the Asian elephant and the Kouprey, or forest ox.
