Robo Raffles1819

This painting is inspired by the museum’s Characters theme and toy collections.

Artist Inspiration Description:

Robo Raffles1819 is my imagination of Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles made a robo. Sir Raffles is a big and important person for the existence of Singapore. If Robo Raffles1819 was made as a super hero, it would be very exciting. Sir Raffles is a real super hero. There are super heroes such as Spiderman, superman, marvel, batman, why not Robo Raffles?

I fantasize, Robo Raffles1819 should be able to become a super hero robo that the children and people here are proud of. Sir Raffles was also given the title Sir by the Queen of England hence here is a crown in the painting as confirmation. Sir Raffles is also smart, sympathetic, handsome and dashing, suitable to be a proud super hero Robo. As a proud tribute and award to become a new idol in Singapore. Even more than existing super hero figures such as Super Man, Batman, Ironman etc.
