What can we imagine with the language of colors, shapes, textures inspired by nature? 

In When Art Meets Nature, a children’s art exhibition co-curated by the Taoyuan Museum of Fine Arts and the National Gallery Singapore, we invite you into a sensorial journey where you can explore nature through the artists’ lens and reimagine new worlds that foster environmental sustainability. 

This exhibition brings together five artists, whose works draw deeply from natural environments, from wildlife to botanical forms. These works are created more than representations of nature, they invite you to see their familiar world in new ways. Whether it is quietly tracing the illustration patterns found on the forest domes, rolling around with soft sculptures of endangered animals, imagining yourself to be listening to sounds in the water, learning the science and history of rivers in the gallery space, or listening to stories and myths of the indigenous living near the rivers.

This exhibition focuses on open-ended exploration, and children will be immersed in sensorial and textural details within each installation. You will find out the dialogues between art and nature. You will also learn about the artists’ responses to the outside world, and their artistic expressions rooted in ecological thinking, as well as appreciating the rich colors, textures, and aesthetic sensibility through the flora and fauna in nature. At last, we invite you to unfold your own journey of artistic creation, and meet nature in art.
