Earth Performance Reenacment
Synopsis
Are you ready to roll? Earth needs your help to get to a safe place!
Earth Performance Reenactment features our planet Earth as a humongous 2.5m balloon , and it needs the help of caring children and special guest PIP to roll it to a safe place in the Esplanade. This interactive performance reminds us that we all have a part to play in protecting our planet.
Inspired by the satellite images of Earth taken from space in the 1970s, artist Seung-taek Lee painted our planet onto a giant PVC balloon. Through various performances and activations, the artist used the oversized balloon Earth to communicate environmental issues at a time when postwar Korea was prioritising urbanisation and industrialisation.
Earth Performance Reenactment is presented in partnership with Singapore Biennale 2025: pure intention.
