The Art in Transit programme represents a journey in time as well as an effort to curate the collective consciousness of the neighbourhoods along the NEL.
This site-specific artworks reflect the cultural and historical heritage of the area and its community. This is a unique and dynamic setting as compared with that of a museum or art gallery.
The NEW artworks are a novel attraction that evoke the past character of each neighbourhood, and provides a means to better understand the many changes which Singapore has experienced over the past three decades and continues to experience.
The Tours serve the dual purpose of exposing participants to the NEL art installations while providing insight into the history of the community in which the NEL stations are located.
