Public Art and Immersive Media: The Convergence of Past and Present

How do we breathe new life into the stories and inspiration behind public artworks within urban environments? Join us for an original and lively discussion with Yeo Chee Kiong, award-winning contemporary sculptor, and Tristan Lim, creative technologist and representative of The MeshMinds Foundation. Having collaborated on AR.T Trail, Singapore’s first public art walking trail powered by Spark AR by Facebook, with programming supported by Facebook Art Department and the National Arts Council, the two featured speakers will share their experiences with traditional and digital placemaking. What role can emerging technology play in preserving and breathing new life into the stories of cultural heritage hidden in our city?
