Public art can take various forms, from 2D wall murals and 3D sculptures to performative and ephemeral manifestations of an artist's creative process.
More importantly, the conception and premise of the artwork is rooted deeply in the public sphere, where it is widely visible and freely accessible to all.

WATCHING THE WORLD GO ROUND
Material: Metal, wood, coloured acrylic, and bicycle partsLocation: Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park Duration: Temporary Collection: Public Art Trust Dimensions: 2.5m x 3m x 3m
Whimsical yet practical, Watching The World Go Round grew out of the artist’s love of cycling and her weekly visits to the park. The interactive carousel-like sculpture offers park visitors the opportunity to unwind, bond with family, and pause for introspection – all while getting a fitness workout.
This artwork was part of Stop and Smell the Ang Mo Dan, a series of public artworks commissioned by the Public Art Trust that invite audiences to slow down and remember the history of Ang Mo Kio while taking a new look at the neighbourhood.
Watching The World Go Round was on display from 8 to 25 March 2018.
