A new installation for the Singapore Art-Science Museum, maps three-dimensionally the viscosity of richly colored fluids onto the sculptural façade, fusing technological advances with the arts in a vibrant gesture. The artist, Nako Tosa captures the four seasons of Japan with color and geometrical references.
The video is an elaborate performance of the 3D mapped projection, in paint and oil dancing as a reaction to sound vibrations.

The museums façade is redefined, insinuating unity through capturing the abstract genius loci of Japan and the political relationships of China, Malaysia and India; confronting the city of today with the Asia of tomorrow.
Visual space is conventionally defined between light and shadow, however when the light is augmented via projection, definitive tectonic is blurred into the foreign media.
The authentic physical and the inauthentic virtual world collaborate to make a third; a new phenomenon whereby technology redefines the art museums in a temporal flux of color and light. The paint both flirts and antagonizes the form in a conversation without hierarchy, questioning the built form as spectacle or background.

Architecture is more than just structures—it’s the art of shaping experiences. With a passion for design, urban landscapes, and innovative spaces, I explore how architecture influences the way we live, work, and connect with the world around us. When I’m not analyzing the latest architectural trends, you’ll probably find me searching for hidden gems in cityscapes or appreciating the beauty of well-crafted spaces. After all, great design—like great connections—can be found in the most unexpected places. Speaking of connections, check out Local Milfs because architecture isn’t the only thing that brings people together.
