Art in Transit: “Somewhere Else” by Yong Ng

Bedok Reservoir MRT Station – Art In Transit (Somewhere Else)

The artwork is inspired by how everyone is in a way born or destined for greater things and that their everyday journey is part of a bigger scheme of things. Hence the quote, “What matters is not where you’re going but where your dreams are headed” will hopefully serve as a reminder to commuters and inspires them on their commuting journey.

The artwork consists of a typographic piece on the lift shaft with connecting graphic elements on the train platform leading towards the exit. Also included is a special bench formed out of a graphic element developed such that the entire artwork serves as both visual and physical enjoyment.
