Singapore’s blueprint for a carbon-free future is embodied in the Green Plan 2030, with its vision of achieving net-zero emissions by the middle of the 21st century. In this collaborative two-part art installation, students reimagined Singapore’s tomorrow by transforming recycled materials into depictions of nature and our future urban landscapes.

The wall piece features a magnifying glass motif that reveals Singapore as a thriving ant colony—each ant symbolises a Singaporean contributing through hard work and care. This imagery invites reflection on how even the smallest ideas can transform into reality.

At the heart of the installation, the sculptural work conveys students’ hopes for a city where creativity, sustainability and nature flourish together. Using recycled textures, it envisions a skyline intertwined with organic elements, representing both environmental stewardship and the pursuit of sustainable innovation.
