Artist Statement
Qilin or maybe mythical giraffe or unicorn?
He is here. He is hiding between the water lilies.
If you want to bring him in your home, remember that he should face toward the exit.
You don't need to take big care of him, however, he "likes" to listen to folk songs and fairy tales, and this is supposed to make it work harder for its owners.
Qilin (Chinese: 麒麟, Japanese: Kirin, Korean: Gilin), is a East Asian creature of chinese origin that is similar to a unicorn. They are one of the many East Asian creatures that feature a one-horned creature.

Artist Profile
Born: 1974
Hometown: Singapore
Based in: Singapore
I became an artist just before my daughter Alice was born. Yes, I was into the art since I was young. Yes, I attended art school for 7 years and then drew, painted, designed as part of my Degree and career in Architecture and Design. However, I only started calling myself an artist just before my daughter was born. While pregnant with her, I finally had the time to travelled extensively in pursuit of my art. I sharpened my skills under renowned artists at Central St. Martin’s College of Arts in London, the Ruskin School University of Oxford, and the Russian Academy of Arts.
Dance is a big part of my life. I was full time dancer for ten years. Doing choreography, making my own costumes. Picking dance skill along the way at LaSalle and ECNAD company.
My Art is reflection of me. It is complex-choreographed as a dance. Collages is made from the items I found while traveling and I think the ideas of collages are from dance costume making background. I like to think of myself as the creator of My own ideal world. Where I can be lost sometime. My very own Magical World!
