About the artists
Biography of Artist, Yeo Shih Yun
Shih Yun's fascination for the abstract medium
surfaced during her time at Lasalle, when she first experimented
with the fusion of fine arts and contemporary design. One of her
early experimental works received acclaim as a highly commended
entry for the UOB Painting of the Year competition in 1999,
which spurred her to further explore fine arts and the abstract
form.
After graduating from Lasalle, Shih Yun attended
the one-year Post Baccalaureate Program (Painting) at the San
Francisco Art Institute.
Shih Yun has collaborated with artists from
America and UK for the past three years and has held numerous
exhibitions in Singapore and Australia. Some of her recent
exhibitions include "exit" in Melbourne, Australia and "NewFinds
2003" at MITA ARTrium. In addition, she was awarded the Emerging
Artist Grant from the National Arts Council to hold her first
solo exhibition titled, "log:one03" at Block 43 Studio Gallery
in 2003.
