The fish drawn by everyone swim around in this aquarium.
Color in a fish on the paper provided. See the picture you have drawn come to life in the massive aquarium in front of you, swimming together with the fish drawn by other people. If viewers touch the swimming fish, they will swim away. If viewers touch the food bags, they can also feed the fish.
The tuna viewers draw will transcend the boundaries of the artwork and swim out into the Sketch Aquariums and Sketch Oceans of exhibitions around the world. And the tuna drawn in other parts of the world may appear and swim in the Sketch Aquarium right in front of the viewers.
Viewers can observe the power of their creative imagination through Sketch Aquarium. Each participant is invited to color a drawing of a sea creature of his or her preference. Once completed, visitors will be able to see their creation come to life in a giant aquarium and swim with all of the other sea creatures. Visitors may also touch the fish to see them swim away, or touch the virtual food bag to feed the fish.
Sketch Aquarium is currently to visit in Singapore Art Science Museum.
