CYBERSWORDFISH V2.0
Inspired by the ancient legend of Singapura Dilanggar Todak, CYBERSWORDFISH V2.0: From Myth to Megabytes presents a striking sculpture that reimagines the invading swordfish as formidable cyberpunk creatures. These modern-day mythical beings are meticulously crafted from e-waste: composed of cracked screens, frayed wires, and salvaged digital components.
As artificial intelligence rapidly accelerates and our societal appetite for new devices intensifies, this compelling installation prompts critical reflection: what becomes of the technological debris we inevitably leave behind? CYBERSWORDFISH V2.0: From Myth to Megabytes masterfully fuses traditional folklore with speculative futures, compelling viewers to reconsider consumption patterns, waste management, and the imperative of renewal in an era defined by relentless technological turnover. In a city globally renowned for its innovation, the artwork poses a crucial question: can Singapore also lead the way in environmental responsibility?
All E-waste used in CYBERSWORDFISH V2.0 was contributed by ALBA E-Waste, supporting sustainable art and giving old tech a cool new life. Visit alba-ewaste.sg to find out more.
