A Curated Collection

The Art of Living

Some artworks are admired from afar. Others quietly become part of everyday living.

A sculpture glimpsed on a morning walk. A painting that catches the changing light throughout the day. Over time, these encounters become as familiar as the architecture itself.

At SC Global, we believe art belongs where people live.

Original works of art transform the way we experience a place. They invite moments of pause and reflection, spark curiosity and reveal new perspectives over time. Like architecture, their presence sets the mood, enriching everyday life in ways that cannot always be measured.

For over two decades, art has been an integral part of SC Global’s philosophy of The Ultimate Living. Through commissions, collecting and collaborations with artists and cultural institutions, we have sought to create meaningful spaces where architecture, landscape and art exist in quiet conversation with one another.

Our Corporate Art Collection spans contemporary sculpture, painting and photography, including works by Fernando Botero, Ju Ming, Jaume Plensa, Andy Warhol, Chua Ek Kay, Ye Jian Qing and Wee Shoo Leong.

Rather than remaining in private collections, works from SC Global’s collection are loaned to selected developments within our portfolio, thoughtfully placed in shared spaces and show galleries, where they become part of the everyday experience of residents and guests. Managed and curated by Seven Palms Resorts Management, the collection is continually refreshed across selected properties, allowing each work to be encountered in new settings and appreciated in different ways.

We believe art is at its most meaningful when it is lived with—when it becomes part of a morning walk through a garden, the calming arrival home or a moment of reflection at the end of a day.

Supporting Creativity

 

Creativity flourishes when ideas are shared. Through public exhibitions, artist collaborations, partnerships with both cultural institutions and art and design schools, SC Global seeks to make art more accessible while creating opportunities and supporting the next generation of creative talent.

Guided by a belief that exceptional art and design can spark new ways of thinking, we hope to inspire the next generation of artists and designers to question convention, discover new perspectives and find their own voice.

 

“The most meaningful works are those that become part of everyday life.”

Setsu Niseko

 

Inspired by Japan. Rooted in a sense of place.

From the mountains that surround it to the artists whose work fills its spaces, Setsu Niseko was conceived as a celebration of place.

Throughout Setsu Niseko, art is woven into the guest experience. The hotel’s lower ground level has been conceived as a gallery-like corridor, where an extensive collection of works by Japanese artists lines the shared spaces. Many of the artists are from Hokkaido, while Ainu artworks honour the region’s cultural heritage.

Complementing the collection are specially commissioned works by Kohei Nawa and Yoko Arano, created exclusively for Setsu. Together, they reflect SC Global’s belief that art is not simply displayed, but thoughtfully integrated into the experience of place.

Every place has a story. The best ones begin by listening.

A is for Andy

 

Originality begins with the courage to see differently.

Inspired by Warhol’s originality and fearless creativity, SC Global presented one of Asia’s first major Andy Warhol exhibitions in 2007, opening the doors to exceptional contemporary art through free public access.

The exhibition reflected our belief that exposure to great art can inspire the next generation of artists and designers to question convention and find their own voice.

Originality has always been at the heart of The Ultimate Living.

Leica X Sculptura Ardmore

 

Originality through another lens.

Architecture is experienced not only through space, but through perspective. In collaboration with Leica Singapore, budding photographers were invited to interpret Sculptura Ardmore through their own creative lens.

The resulting exhibition at Raffles Hotel revealed new ways of seeing one of Singapore’s most distinctive residential landmarks, and celebrated originality in both architecture and photography.

The initiative began with a photography competition inviting amateur photographers to capture Sculptura Ardmore from their own perspective. Finalists and SC Global residents were then invited to a workshop led by Leica professionals before the winning images were exhibited at Raffles Hotel Singapore. The collaboration provided emerging photographers with a platform for recognition while revealing new ways of seeing one of Singapore’s most distinctive residential landmarks.

Every perspective reveals something new.

200 Artworks 25 Years Artists’ Editions for PARKETT

 

Making exceptional art accessible.

Art becomes most meaningful when it can be experienced by many. As presenting sponsor of 200 Artworks • 25 Years – Artists’ Editions for PARKETT

SC Global helped bring one of the world’s most respected collections of contemporary artist editions to Singapore, reinforcing our belief that sharing exceptional art enriches communities and inspires new perspectives.

Great art inspires long after the exhibition ends.

SC Global Art Car

 

Discovering the talents of tomorrow

Creativity often begins with a blank canvas. Through the SC Global Art Car Project, emerging artists and design students were invited to reimagine the iconic Porsche 911, transforming it into a moving work of art.

Presented as part of the Singapore Grand Prix festivities, the initiative celebrated originality, encouraged bold ideas and offered young creatives an international platform to share their vision.

The future belongs to those who imagine it differently.

ISM : The Art of Modern Living

 

Where conversations with art began

To celebrate the launch of the Lincoln Modern in 2002, SC Global commissioned eight of the world’s most promising young artists to explore their own interpretation of The Ultimate Living.

The resulting exhibition, ~ ISM: the art of modern living, which included works by pioneering pixel art studio Eboy, marked the beginning of a philosophy that continues today—one where art and architecture exist side by side and creativity is seen as an essential part of the places we create.

Every philosophy begins with a question.
