The National Arts Council (NAC) released a filmlet starring seven Singaporean artists across art forms as part of the #SGCultureAnywhere campaign. Produced by Chuan Pictures and directed by acclaimed local director and 2002 Young Artist Award recipient Royston Tan, the 30-second piece showcases the wonder of Singapore’s art, and portrays resilience and versatility of our artists who have been seeking new ways to bring the arts to Singaporeans even during this challenging period.
The seven artists are coming together for the first time in this visual medley to showcase the robust and vibrant arts scene in Singapore – from music, dance and theatre to traditional, literary and visual arts. Artists representing their respective art forms include dance pioneer and 1990 Cultural Medallion recipient Santha Bhaskar; novelist and 2007 Cultural Medallion recipient Isa Kamari; jazz vocalist Joanna Dong; music composer and sound artist, 2012 Young Artist Award recipient Darren Ng; principal dancer of Singapore Dance Theatre Kwok Min Yi; theatre actress and 2014 Young Artist Award recipient Siti Khalijah; as well as visual artist Farizwan Fajari (Speak Cryptic). Together, they embody the spirit of the arts community to make arts and culture available for all to enjoy.
