ARtistry@Somerset
An initiative led by the National Youth Council (NYC) and the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY), in collaboration with the Somerset Beltt, we are encouraging young Singaporeans to explore the heritage and future of Somerset while looking for digital performances by local artists. Patrons can begin their journey at *SCAPE to discover the hub for culture and youth development’s future plans, or at Somerset’s Skate Park to get a feel for life in Somerset before the youth-based placemaking efforts. QR codes are placed on selected floor spots at various locations where audiences can initiate the digital performances via Instagram or Facebook Camera.
Featuring upcoming artist like R&B singer Feez, singer-songwriter Iman Fandi, DJ Intriguant, popstar RRILEY and rapper Yung Raja are among the performers involved. Each AR concept and performance is one-of-a-kind and corresponds to the artist’s musical style and overall vibe. Patrons are also encouraged to participate in the dance challenges devised by the performers. They will be treated to exclusive sneak previews of Feez and RRILEY’s new music releases, which will be released in the coming months, as well as popular songs by Iman Fandi - ‘Timeframe’, Intiguant - ‘Wind’ and Yung Raja - ‘Mami’
