THE BLOOMING HEARTS FORTUNE MERLION
Celebrate national identity and eco-conscious design with Singapore’s largest mechanical Fortune Merlion, a magnificent 2.8 metre tall interactive sculpture. Inspired by the classic monument situated at the mouth of the once-polluted Singapore River, this public artwork serves as a testament to the nation’s remarkable environmental transformation into a clean Garden City. 50 percent of this fiberglass composite is made with recycled PET bottle flakes, replacing a significant amount of virgin resin. The installation by Uniplay features animated movements in both its arm and head, standing as a colourful symbol of joy, creativity, and sustainability, reminding visitors that good fortune flourishes when we care for the world.

About UNIPLAY
Founded by Joe Chua, Uniplay is a Singapore-based sustainable art toy brand that transforms discarded PET bottles into collectible 3D-printed artworks. Inspired by Singapore’s low plastic recycling rate, Joe launched the “Trash to Treasure” campaign, combining his love for the iconic Merlion and the Fortune Cat into a unique artistic creation. This led to the world’s first Fortune Merlion for SG60, a functional art toy made from recycled plastics that celebrates sustainability, collaborative creativity, innovation, and a shared commitment to eco-conscious design.
