Nike is a sports apparel and shoe brand recognised by millions all over the world. To celebrate their football innovations, Nike created an art gallery called Hypersense: The Art & Science of Football Innovation at the iconic Marina Bay Sands, particularly the ArtScience Museum, in May 2014.

Marina Bay Public Art Trail

Art is no longer appealing to just art enthusiasts only. It seems that now art can really capture everyone's attention if done right. Artworks are displayed almost everywhere.
