First Generation, Bronze sculpture near Cavenagh Bridge, Singapore.
The First Generation sculpture portrays five bronze boys mid-leap into the Singapore River, capturing their motion in fine detail.
Unveiled on December 31, 2000, this sculpture was the first installation of the Open Air Interpretative Centre project by the Singapore Tourism Board.
The artwork represents the daily activities of early immigrants' children who used the Singapore River as their swimming and playing spot.
Located three minutes on foot from Raffles Place MRT station, the sculpture stands along Fullerton Road with access to multiple bus services.
The bronze figures appear to float in mid-air, creating an optical effect that changes based on the viewing angle.
