Divaagar’s Everfowl Estate (April 2023 – March 2025) was part of The Everyday Museum’s public art commissioning series, Port/raits of Tanjong Pagar. This artwork playfully proposed a civilised living environment for the junglefowl that roam around the neighbourhood and suggested the possibility of harmonious living with our nonhuman counterparts. Everfowl Estate examined how city inhabitants engage with public spaces and highlighted the urban ecosystems that exist amidst and are affected by constant urban development.
In this artist talk, Divaagar is joined by filmmaker Jun Chong, director of 《新民》New Resident, and avian specialist and researcher Melody Wu, to speak on the nuanced dynamics between humans and nature as well as art, science and habitat.
The programme was presented as part of A Weekend with The Everyday Museum – Embodied Voices, organised by The Everyday Museum, a public art initiative of Singapore Art Museum.
