Synopsis

The National Antiquities Parade is an interactive art installation that invites Singapore Art Week explorers to the Singapore Sports Hub to restore and paint a freshly unearthed clay army depicting the last National Day held at the Kallang National Stadium.  

Residents of the Kallang-Mountbatten area, both young and old, have had a unique opportunity to collaborate with professional artists. Together, they have created this "archaeological discovery," commemorating President S R Nathan's inspection of the Guard of Honour.

Arts Conservator and interdimensional traveller Dr Farook Farkhan from the Temporal Displacement Agency is seeking your assistance. With their unique perspectives and creativity, can contemporary Singaporeans paint the sculptures in the colours of national unity in time for SG60 celebrations?

This community-driven participatory arts project is a tribute to Mountbatten's unique contribution to Singapore's nationhood as the only residential area to host National Day parades from 1973 to 2006.

Developed by Atelier HOKO, Commissioned by The Everyday Museum, a public art initiative by Singapore Art Museum
