Reimagining the Five Stars | SG50
Every Singaporean knows what the five stars on Singapore’s flag stand for: democracy, peace, progress, justice, and equality.
For SG50, we reimagined them as art/interactive installations, and placed them around Marina Bay.
DEMOCRACY - To light up the star, a row of people had to stand on giant buttons, symbolising the power of the people.
PEACE - We created a photo op for people to ‘complete’ the star with their hands.
PROGRESS - Constructed from mirrors, it reflected (literally) the surrounding landscape to show how far Singapore has come.
JUSTICE - Built entirely of clear blocks, to reflect Singapore’s transparent and fair justice system.
EQUALITY - Designed with in-built speakers, this star could broadcast the Singapore pledge in our 4 national languages, symbolising racial equality.
