The Playground Series – The Pelican
A series of pins inspired by Singapore’s old school mosaic playgrounds. These were made, following after our photography exhibition at the M1 Singapore Fringe Festival 2011, titled “School of Hard Knocks”.
As kids from the 80′s, these playgrounds were dear to us, and it saddened us to see these very majestic playgrounds abandoned, and worse still, slowly being demolished. Over the years, we saw these empty abandoned playgrounds almost somewhat like public installation art pieces. With memories of its beautiful architecture glistening against the sunlight slowly fading, we knew we had to capture this part of memory before it disappears. And so, we’ve made them into wearable art, a piece where we can still place near our hearts. Call them badges of resilience too, if you may.
There are a total of 5 pins:
The Dragon, The Elephant, The Pelican, The Watermelon & The Dove
Products shown here are also available via our online store.
