BottleBlooms

BottleBlooms
Yun (Singapore)
Location: Tanjong Pagar Park at Guoco Tower, Tras Link Park near Orchid Hotel Singapore

BottleBlooms is a display of solar-powered luminous plastic blossoms in a green public space, crafted from over 1,500 upcycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles through a public collection drive by Discover Tanjong Pagar (pilot Business Improvement District), Cantonment Primary School and City Sprouts, a social enterprise with an aim to rejuvenate urban spaces. 

The artwork provokes a re-evaluation of things that are often thrown away mindlessly and is a reminder of the transformative potential inherent in our discarded materials. BottleBlooms urges us to think about the life cycle of materials and encourages a more thorough incorporation of plastics into the circular economy via PET recycling. 

About the Artist

An industrial designer working in research and development, Yun drives innovation in consumer goods. Her first artwork Moon Flower premiered at i Light Marina Bay in 2017 and later travelled to Europe and the United States. She then co-created The Rainbow Connection with community partners for i Light Singapore – Bicentennial Edition in 2019. Yun’s return to i Light Singapore 2024 is motivated by her resolve to create delightful and deeply memorable experiences for people through her art and design.
