Feral Child (prelude)

2013 | singapore

URBAN MOWGLI SYNDROME / We were not able to extract the feral child found in the deepness of Singapore Jungle without the minimum environmental precaution. The group of scientists in charge of her re-adaptation decided to avoid jumping into a Mowgli syndrome, and instead placed her in a human education settlement. Those fragments of Bamboos forest are literally the biotope in which she survived.
