Visitors can experience the natural world like never before, seeing it from striking new perspectives as they walk among insects with images towering up to 7 feet high at ArtScience Museum’s first exhibition of the year — Insects: Microsculptures Magnified. Making its Southeast Asian debut on 17 January 2026, the exhibition illuminates the larger-than-life realm of insects, revealing the beauty and intricacy of their forms far beyond what the naked eye can perceive. Through the masterful lens of award-winning British photographer Levon Biss, microscopic details of each insect are transformed into captivating visual encounters.
Created in collaboration with the American Museum of Natural History, the exhibition features 37 monumental, high-magnification portraits of insects from the Oxford University Museum of Natural History’s collection. Microscopic forms are spotlighted in breathtaking detail and clarity, allowing visitors to examine colours, textures and anatomical structures that often remain invisible, even to close observers.
The exhibition also features cutting-edge scientific research from Singapore, revealing how discoveries made here, from urban insect ecology to bio-inspired materials science, are shaping global understanding of biodiversity and design.
