由新加坡Artbox和INVADE.CO委托,Monkiddo的最新委托插畫展示了兩幅6米長的壁畫,旨在讓觀眾沈浸在新加坡文化和Artbox嘉年華的多彩慶祝中。除了傳統的插畫,Monkiddo還融合了增強現實(AR)技術,為觀眾創造互動體驗。壁畫描繪了一幅熱鬧的場景,Monkiddo的主要角色Soso乘坐他的UFO進行了一次宇宙之旅。在探索過程中,Soso遇到了一個充滿活力的氛圍,里面有受Artbox啟發的各種活動,包括街頭象棋、KTV和VR遊戲。作品散發著新加坡元素,如蓮花、標志性摩天大樓、小販中心和標志性的魚尾獅,捕捉到了城市充滿活力的文化精髓。壁畫旨在喚起家的感覺,邀請觀眾參與到慶祝活動中,培養社區感和聯系感。憑借其藝術性、技術性和文化參考的融合,Monkiddo的創作有望成為Artbox活動的亮點,為所有參與者提供難忘的體驗。
Commissioned by Artbox Singapore and INVADE.CO, Monkiddo’s latest project features two 6-meter-long murals designed to immerse viewers in a vibrant celebration of Singaporean culture and the Artbox fiesta. Beyond traditional illustration, Monkiddo integrates augmented reality (AR) technology to create an interactive experience for audiences. The murals depict a bustling scene where Soso, Monkiddo’s main character, embarks on a cosmic journey aboard his UFO. As Soso explores, he encounters a lively atmosphere filled with engaging activities inspired by Artbox, including Street Chess, KTV, and VR Games. The artwork radiates Singaporean elements such as lotus flowers, iconic skyscrapers, hawker centers, and the iconic Merlion, capturing the essence of the city’s vibrant culture. Designed to evoke the feeling of home, the murals invite viewers to participate in the festivities, fostering a sense of community and connection. With its blend of artistry, technology, and cultural references, Monkiddo’s creation promises to be a highlight of the Artbox event, offering an unforgettable experience for all who engage with it.
