SINGAPORE – Visitors can put their best foot forward and wander through a dynamic playground where sneakers, street culture, and art intersect at Sneakertopia: Step Into Street Culture – a larger-than-life exhibition making its Asian debut at ArtScience Museum.
Having made waves at previous stops in Los Angeles and New York, Sneakertopia was the brainchild of Emmy Award-winning producer Steve Harris and Silicon Valley tech entrepreneur Steve Brown, who wanted to share their love for sneakers with people of all ages and
backgrounds.
Held in collaboration with ArtScience Museum, this iteration of Sneakertopia organised by SPACElogic with partners SL Experiences and Gushcloud International, is set to knock one’s socks off as it assembles a dazzling line-up of local and international artists, creatives,
contributors and brands.
The exhibition includes over 100 limited-edition sneakers and 70 murals, installations, designs, and original artworks – many of which have not been shown before. It celebrates the diversity of sneaker culture, traces its history and examines its powerful connections with various genres such as entertainment, technology, contemporary art, hip-hop, sports, and fashion.
On top of works by 13 renowned U.S. creatives including McFlyy, Michael Murphy, Mimi Yoon, Tommii Lim, and smoluk, Sneakertopia offers a perspective closer to home through 17 Singaporean and locally-based creatives and contributors. From artists HURUHARA, Inkten, Juls, Kristal Melson, PHUNK, soph O, and tobyato, to DJ Kiat from SYNDICATE.SG, as well as designers Pek Shun Ping (ALIVEFORM), Josiah Chua, and Mr. Sabotage, the exhibition showcases the multi-talented creatives who have helped to establish the
rise of sneaker and street culture in Singapore and Southeast Asia.
Among those featured, 13 of these artists and contributors are showcasing never-before-seen artworks in the exhibition – ranging from murals, prints, large-scale installations and sculptures to even a DJ mixtape with tracks selected based on hip-hop artists’ influences and connections to sneaker culture. These works are shown alongside sneaker collections and artworks on loan from the likes of Mandeep Chopra, Founder and CEO of Limited Edt, The Culture Story, and award-winning popstar JJ Lin.
Featuring 10 colourful zones, Sneakertopia: Step Into Street Culture will take visitors on a creative journey through the world of sneakers and all its connected cultures, inspiring them to leave their mark on each section as they come to embrace their creativity and self-expression.
Tickets are available for purchase at all Marina Bay Sands box offices and website. Guests are strongly encouraged to pre-purchase tickets online prior to their visit.
