More than Human Opens November 28 at ArtScience Museum in Singapore: Over 140 Works in Asian Debut Through May 16, 2027, With 25 Works Added for Singapore Edition
Singapore — ArtScience Museum at Marina Bay Sands has announced More than Human, Making With the Living World, a major exhibition opening on November 28 in its Asian debut, running through May 16, 2027. The museum's press release was issued on October 28 and was covered again by cultural media this week.
Making its Asian debut, the exhibition presents over 140 artworks, projects, immersive installations and interactive experiences by nearly 55 artists, designers, architects, researchers and communities. Spanning art, design, science and technology, it asks how humans and other species might thrive together.
The exhibition was originally developed by the Design Museum in London in collaboration with Future Observatory, the museum's national research programme for the green transition, supported by the Arts and Humanities Research Council, part of UK Research and Innovation.
The Singapore edition has been expanded. ArtScience Museum co-curated 25 additional works, supported by DesignSingapore Council, foregrounding perspectives from Asia, including regional cultural traditions and wisdom.
Presented across three thematic sections, the exhibition features a design by Singapore based practice Lekker Architects, guiding visitors through spaces inspired by hedge mazes, archipelagos and woodland environments.
Highlights include Berl-Berl by Jakob Kudsk Steensen, a large scale immersive audiovisual installation that transports visitors into an ever changing digital wetland inspired by the landscape that became Berlin.
Aki Inomata's How to Carve a Sculpture transforms wood gnawed by beavers into works that question whether creativity belongs to humans alone.
Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg's Pollinator Pathmaker features an eight metre tapestry imagining gardens designed around the needs of pollinating species.
Southeast Asian perspectives come through new and adapted works by regional artists and collaborators. Local partners include the National Parks Board, the National University of Singapore's Experimental Marine Ecology Laboratory and the Asian Civilisations Museum, with exhibits including the Parks Board's Bee Trail, the university laboratory's Fish Houses and traditional Southeast Asian fish traps from the Asian Civilisations Museum.
Angelita Teo, Vice President of Attractions at Marina Bay Sands, said in the release that it was important for the museum to bring its own perspective to the exhibition, adding voices and knowledge from Singapore and Southeast Asia and connecting its ideas with how nature is understood and lived alongside in this part of the world.
Justin McGuirk, Director of Future Observatory, said in the release that the exhibition captures an emerging movement of art and design dedicated to the flourishing of the natural systems humans depend on.
Dawn Lim, executive director of DesignSingapore Council, said in the release that design has the power to change not just how people see the world but how they live in it, and that the council is proud to support the expanded Singapore edition, bringing Asian perspectives to the question of who and what design is for.
Tickets have been available since October 28 at Marina Bay Sands box offices and online. ArtScience Museum, at Marina Bay Sands, has operated since 2011 and is home to the permanent exhibition Future World by teamLab.
