Toilet Training 如厠訓練

Gaming Installation

ALAN commissioned artwork in 2025

Artwork Description

Yes, bird droppings are annoying — we know. Toilet Training turns this everyday frustration into a game, poking fun at the wildly unrealistic idea that wild animals should politely follow human rules. Let’s be honest — who’s actually failing the etiquette test here?

Maybe it’s time to flip the script. Instead of asking wildlife to constantly adjust to our cities, what if we asked how our cities could do a better job of sharing space? Urban planning, coexistence, and a little self‑reflection come into play. And while we’re at it… have you seen the state of our public toilets?
