Art-Zoo Inflatable Park is roving its way to Shenzhen now, giving Shenzheners the chance to make grand memories together this summer.

Art-Zoo creates an imaginative landscape that celebrates nature through the perspective of art. It stirs up curiosity and wonder in viewers of all ages.

Both highly relatable and educational, Art-Zoo adopts a visually appealing approach to creatively linking the letters with animals. Simple shapes and iconic patterns are used to form recognizable silhouettes of animals and plants that represent the alphabet from A to Z. The idea behind Art-Zoo came from a desire to bring to life childhood fantasies. The inspiration behind it includes fond memories of visits to zoos, playtimes at animal-themed playgrounds, as well as children’s shows.

Art-Zoo Inflatable Park was first launched in Singapore as part of the iLight Marina Bay festival in March 2017, which showcased the large-scale creative installation within urban city space. The inflatables occupied a significant venue area of more than 9,000 square meters, creating a colorful and interactive playground set against the iconic city skyline of Marina Bay area. By adding a twist in bringing the zoo to the city, the interactive art installations allow visitors to learn about nature in a fun and engaging way.

The concept of Art-Zoo was created by Singaporean artist, designer and curator Jackson Tan and designed together with the team at his creative studio BLACK.
