The W!ld One
SINGAPORE, 11 March 2024 - Scorpio Electric Pte. Ltd. (“Scorpio Electric”), Singapore’s
first electric motorcycle manufacturer, and Wild Rice celebrated a successful collaboration at
the Rice Ball 2024 charity auction. Held on 9 March 2024, the event marked a significant
milestone in their ongoing commitment to the local arts and culture, as well as the unveiling
and successful charity auction of The W!ld One – a one-of-a-kind masterpiece created through
the collaborative efforts of urban artist ANTZ, Scorpio Electric and Wild Rice.
The W!ld One - One-Of-A-Kind Masterpiece
The W!ld One
Inspired by the X1's asymmetrical design and Scorpio Electric's commitment to design, the Chalk White and Wild Rice Red colours also pay homage to Singapore's national flag. On one side, the Chalk White represents simplicity and purity, embodying a clean and uncomplicated essence. On the other side, The W!ld One features Wild Rice Red adorned with a captivating graffiti style and hides the Chinese word "玩" (wán), meaning "play" or theatre, reflecting the theme of the event. ANTZ's portrayal of The Monkey King also adds playful symbolism, a homage to Scorpio Electric’s Founder Advisor, Melvin Goh’s zodiac animal, creating a rich narrative within the artwork.
Based on Scorpio Electric’s X1 Pre-Production Prototype electric motorcycle, The W!ld One symbolises the pioneering collaboration amongst ANTZ, Scorpio Electric and Wild Rice, celebrating the entrepreneurial spirit of creativity and innovation. A future collectible for the discerning aesthete.
Joshua Goh, Chief Executive Officer of Scorpio Electric, said, "The W!ld One is a unique masterpiece that will be written in our milestones. We are immensely proud of the success of the Rice Ball 2024 charity auction and the collaboration amongst ANTZ, Scorpio Electric and Wild Rice. This event exemplifies our shared commitment to driving positive change and making a meaningful difference in the world."
Ivan Heng, Founding Artistic Director of Wild Rice said, “The collaboration with Scorpio Electric and ANTZ for The W!ld One has been a true testament to the power of creativity and innovation. We are grateful for the opportunity to contribute to such a worthy cause and look forward to future endeavours together.”
ANTZ said, “Crafting The W!ld One was a journey of artistic exploration and profound meaning for me. The X1 provided new dimensions to transcend the boundaries of art, echoing the spirit of innovation and collaboration. This piece represents not just a partnership, but a shared commitment to the power of collective action and creative expression.”
The auction of The W!ld One garnered a total of S$20,888, showcasing the resounding support for the collaboration between ANTZ, Scorpio Electric and Wild Rice. All proceeds from the sale of this art piece will be donated to Wild Rice, one of Singapore's leading professional theatre companies and a not-for-profit Singapore registered charity.
