The 36-kilometre Coast-to-Coast trail is lined with greenery, heartland cityscapes, and nature parks. But from now until June 6, you can also enjoy 14 newly commissioned text-based public artworks commemorating our post-COVID reality.

These artworks, which were created around the theme Rewritten: The World Ahead of Us, are situated in 8 park spaces between Punggol and Jurong. Commissioned by the Public Art Trust (PAT) under the National Arts Council (NAC), the artistes are all homegrown and were selected through an open call process.

Here are some highlights to look out for ahead of your next trek down the trail:
