Okay, so you’ve taken your fair share of photos and Boomerangs at Singapore’s Instagram staple, aka the high-tech, bedazzling wonderland that is ArtScience Museum’s Future World exhibition. Since its inception here in 2016, Tokyo-based interdisciplinary collective teamLab’s super photogenic dreamscapes have become a must-see for visitors, Singaporeans and ’gramaholics, of course. Who doesn’t love traipsing around in the trippy Crystal Universe (main pic)? But if you’ve visited ArtScience Museum’s permanent exhibition once and think you’ve seen it all, think again.

Future World has just been refreshed and with an all-new gallery and two new artworks for your viewing — and Instagramming — pleasure. You’ll find the all-new features in the City in a Garden gallery, one of four galleries (Sanctuary, Park and Space complete the line-up). If you haven’t realised by now, City in a Garden is a riff on Singapore’s Garden City status and the theme of integrating nature back into the concrete jungle, and takes you through fields of flowers, lush meadows and even an aquarium.

Can’t decide if it’s worth a return visit? We’re here to help.

    Can’t keep your pet fish alive? You’ll have better luck in this digital aquatic paradise, where you can create your own sea creature on paper, then see it virtually come to life on one of teamLab’s best known pieces. You’ll also get to ‘feed’ the fish here by tapping on touchscreen fish food bags. Cute.
