Roots and Wings is a community-based immersive installation created for Singapore Art Week and exhibited at Aliwal Arts Centre, exploring the role of green spaces within dense urban environments. I collaborated with residents of the Kampong Glam district through three workshop sessions, where nature walks led by Untamed Paths inspired participants to paint their responses onto cardboard pigeon silhouettes and share personal reflections. These recorded voices were later woven into an atmospheric soundtrack that I composed for the installation. The final artwork—constructed from recyclable cardboard by Trio Packaging and illuminated by UmamiFX—brought together community expression, sustainability, and multisensory storytelling.
