2024, National Gallery Singapore, Singapore
Kumari Nahappan's Wings of Change features inflatable saga seeds, a symbol of boundless possibilities—showcased at the iconic Padang for Singapore’s Light to Night Festival 2024.
The radiant saga seed represents energy and optimism. Her piece brings attention to the saga tree, whose population has dwindled over time, emphasizing the critical need for preservation, conservation, and sustainability in today's world, especially in the face of climate change. Positioned alongside the seed is a pod, a vast reservoir of untapped energy, serving as a compelling advocacy for climate action and prompting festivalgoers to recognize their responsibility as caretakers of the planet.
