Not just child’s play: 7 arts and wellness programmes to nurture young minds
Wild Neighbours: Film Screening and Artist Conversation
02 Aug 2024 (Fri)
Since April 2023, Divaagar’s Everfowl Estate has been on view at Block 1 Everton Park as part of The Everyday Museum’s public art commissioning series, Port/raits of Tanjong Pagar. This artwork playfully proposes a civilised living environment for the junglefowl that roam around the neighbourhood and suggests the possibility of harmonious living with our nonhuman counterparts. Everfowl Estate examines how city inhabitants engage with public spaces and highlights the urban ecosystems that exist amidst and are affected by constant urban development. Joined by filmmaker Jun Chong, the director of《新民》New Resident, and avian specialist and researcher Melody Wu, this programme invites contemplation on the nuanced dynamics between humans and nature as well as art, science and habitat.
The evening includes a screening of《新民》New Resident, a narrative short film by Chong that spotlights the unlikely relationship between a resident and the wild chickens found at her estate in Sin Ming.
