Where the Wildflowers Grow

Kester Wong and Tan Shao Qi (Singapore)
Location: Mist Walk

Larger-than-life wildflowers flourish in a quiet corner of the city. Crafted from locally reclaimed industrial materials, metal offcuts and discarded carpet, the surfaces are informed by remnants of their past.

As the flora respond to your touch, they begin to sway, their motion lingering. The space is softly awakened through collective movement.

The installation draws attention to the spontaneous flora that shares our urban spaces – wildflowers and weeds commonly found on roadside edges and corners, inviting us to discover the quiet nature around us.

In this interactive garden, visitors are invited to experience an ever-shifting world Where the Wildflowers Grow.

The carpet material in the installation is provided by The Mill International Pte Ltd, Singapore’s first company to repurpose used carpets into polypropylene pellets for upcycling.

About the artist

Kester Wong and Tan Shao Qi are an artist-designer collective investigating the relationships between light, material, and experiential design. Through immersive, site-responsive installations, they invite quiet observation of transitory moments found in the mundane.  

Wong works at the intersection of industrial design, sculpture, and social research, studying how objects shape communal behaviour. Tan's practice centres on porcelain and glass, investigating their fragile yet enduring nature through installations that reflect the ephemeral qualities of light and nature.
