Gliding Through The Heartlands New Sengkang Punggol LRT

By Caden Lee Kai En

This artwork represents the Sengkang Punggol LRT, looping through the landscape. The train is depicted in motion, creating a sense of movement and energy. In the background, there are many different coloured flats. The train has a clear blue colour, creating a contrast effect against the background, drawing attention to its playful, compact form. The circular movement of the train reflects the repetitive rhythm of everyday life, where each turn shows a new perspective of the familiar environment. The scene captures a playful journey, the excitement of viewing something from a different perspective. This reminds viewers that even in the simplest experiences, there are joyful moments.
