Local mural artist Aries Kong Chak Kiong, widely known by his artistic name Jagung Art, is incorporating artificial intelligence technology into his latest mural project located at Java Street.
The artist is adopting modern creative methods by using virtual reality (VR) goggles to generate the foundational sketch of the mural, blending traditional artistic expression with advanced digital tools in public art production.
The mural’s concept focuses on portraying historical scenes and daily activities surrounding the Brooke Dockyard, highlighting its cultural and historical significance as part of the city’s heritage narrative.
