Shih Yun Yeo

Shih Yun Yeo

Born: 1976

Hometown: Singapore

Based in: Singapore

YEO Shih Yun (1976, Singapore) is a highly regarded Singaporean artist whose innovative approach to ink painting has garnered international acclaim. After obtaining a Bachelor degree in Business Administration from the National University of Singapore in 1998, Yeo pursued a Diploma in Communication Design at LASALLE-SIA College of the Arts in 2001, followed by the Post Baccalaureate Programme in painting at the San Francisco Art Institute in 2002.

Yeo's experimental fusion of traditional ink painting with contemporary mediums such as new media and performance art has resulted in dynamic and unpredictable works that challenge conventional notions of the medium. Her unique creative process has earned her recognition, including a 2011 commission by the Singapore Art Museum and the People's Choice Award for "Conversations with trees," which was nominated for Sovereign Asian Art Prize Finalists in 2012 and auctioned by Christie's Asia. She has also won the UOB Painting of the Year Competition (Distinction in Abstract category) twice, in 1999 and 2007.

Yeo has held exhibitions in major cities including Singapore, Hong Kong, Taipei, Shanghai, Tokyo, and New York, and has completed numerous commissions, including National Gallery Singapore's "My Ink-credible Adventure" and her solo exhibition at Esplanade, titled "Chance Encounters," in 2021. Her groundbreaking works have been showcased in "Generative Art and the Future," hosted by Poly Auction China, and she participated in the "NFTs + The Ever-Evolving World of Art" Tezos exhibition at Art Basel Hong Kong in May 2022. Yeo was also invited to participate in the "Digital Baroque" exhibition and auction curated by 4ART NFT+ marketplace and minted on Palm network.

In 2017, Yeo published her first book, "INKPULSE: the art of Yeo Shih Yun," which chronicles her creative process and highlights her pursuit of new depths and perspectives within and beyond Abstract Expressionism. Additionally, Yeo is the Founder of "INSTINC," an independent art space in Singapore.

Yeo's innovative approach to ink art has made a significant impact on the development of the medium both in Singapore and internationally. Her contributions to the art world have been widely recognized and she continues to push the boundaries of the medium with her unique approach and experimental techniques.
