Unfurl is a garden like no other. Nature, art and technology have combined to create this visual spectacle consisting of 19 plants, nine of which are massive robots. The interactive, gentle giant in Unfurl are made from fabric and air, towering as high as a double-decker bus. They form a dreamscape where the plants can sense that you have come to visit and thus reach out to connect. The calming retreat from the bustling city is full of light, colour and sounds, guaranteed to enchant children and adults alike.
As part of Tai Kwun’s 5th Anniversary Celebration programme, Unfurl will make its Asian debut throughout Tai Kwun’s Parade Ground from May 23 to 31. To create a friendly garden atmosphere for Unfurl, a grass lawn will be built at the Parade Ground while the interactive experience is suitable for all ages and open to the public free of charge. Families and individuals are both welcome to Unfurl, a joyful experience not to be missed that celebrates the wonder and intelligence of nature’s design sensibilities and makes space for human connection and play.
