Sensing Punggol

Sensing Punggol is a collaborative artwork with the residents of Punggol.

Unearth intriguing stories about living in Punggol as you view the larger-than-life “data sculptures” being showcased in a travelling exhibition at various locations in the town. These artworks were created from neighbourhood environmental data collected by Punggol residents of all ages.

Through these sculptures, you might discover the hidden life stories behind sensor data such as air particulate-matter levels, sound levels, and UV levels, as a way of quantifying the relationships between humans and their environment across a period of time.
