Everfowl Estate is a playful proposition introducing civilised living to the many feathered folks inhabiting the neighbourhood. Modelled after the surrounding neighbourhood for its historical and contemporary architecture—public housing flats, heritage shophouses or high-rise condominiums—, the series of miniature homes is a showroom display fitted with models of fowl families, offering visions of modern living for the junglefowl citizens of Tanjong Pagar.  

The backdrop of the work is Everton Park, one of the oldest public housing estates in Singapore. Situated at a unique intersection of newer developments, older businesses and ongoing revitalisation projects, Everton Park has remained relatively unchanged. In referencing this eclectic mix of architecture and the local junglefowl population, Everfowl Estate conceives a diorama of the distinctive conditions of the neighbourhood and challenges viewers to consider their surroundings from a macro perspective.  

Everfowl Estate’s projection of harmonious living with our nonhuman residents examines the way city habitants engage with public spaces which can serve as a forum, a habitat for various flora and fauna, a place for congregation, recreation and sometimes contention between humans and non-humans, embracing both the tensions and kinship that come with it.
