Wild Critters at Singapore Art Week 2021
Wild Critters draws on the idea of endangered species. Being a rarity, these creatures are often hidden from sight, hence spotting one leaves most of us in bewilderment.
Five artists & collectives each create a fictional endangered critter that lives across five different habitats in the district of Gillman Barracks, interactive through an Instagram Augmented Reality (AR) filter on mobile devices.
Meet Trancy, a 5G and fake news consuming Smarto Octopus, created by our very own artist, Super Cyber Town!
Let Trancy settle on your head, she makes you temporarily immune to disinformation and social media, leading those who have been touched by her to feel an incredible sense of peace and well being.
