YOUTH OLYMPIC PARK
Along Raffles Avenue in Singapore, Youth Olympic Park brings outdoor art close to Promenade MRT station. Singapore’s first art park covers 0.4 hectares and welcomes wheelchair users. Opened in 2010 for the inaugural Youth Olympic Games, it gathers 27 installations by local students aged eight to 28. Those works emerged from a local art competition involving young creators.
Look for Amanda Chong’s poem “Lion Heart” and Aniket Chavan’s landscape maze, whose mountain rises 4.5 metres. A drawing by Joyce Seah inspired that mountain. A solid-rock wall carries drawings by 18 teenagers, each depicting a familiar Singapore landmark, including the Esplanade and Merlion. Designed by Lui Honfay of the National University of Singapore, the Ribbon Seats combine wood and metal.
