Momentary Pulses: Art in the Central Business District

Momentary Pulses is a public art trail that invites you to slow down and encounter art in the daily flow of life. Spanning overlooked and interstitial public spaces like linkways, open plazas and MRT passages, seven newly commissioned installations by Singapore based artists respond to the sights, sounds and commercial pulse of the Central Business District (CBD) — turning routine journeys into moments of reflection and imagination.

Featuring works by Song-Ming Ang, Finbarr Fallon, Catherine Hu, Zul Mahmod, collaborative duo Teow Yue Han and Federico Ruberto, Yang Jie and Immanuel Koh, the trail reveals the textures and histories embedded within Singapore’s urban core. The works will be launched in two phases, with the first phase featuring five installations by Song-Ming Ang, Finbarr Fallon, Catherine Hu, Zul Mahmod, and the collaborative duo Teow Yue Han and Federico Ruberto. The remaining two works by Yang Jie and Immanuel Koh will be introduced in the later part of 2026. Each installation is sited within walking distance in the CBD, including stops near OUE Link (Raffles Place), One Raffles Quay (North Tower), Asia Square (Tower 1), Shenton House, and Tanjong Pagar MRT (Exit G). Look out for kinetic and sound-based installations, AI-driven works, sculptural interventions, and site-specific gestures that reframe how we perceive the city’s everyday infrastructures. Together, these works offer distinct lenses on movement, memory, technology and transformation — encouraging new ways of seeing a district in constant motion.
