I’m a passionate brand creator, artist and ceramicist who practises in Singapore.
When it all begins
I first encountered Dr Iskandar Jalil’s process in 1996 – 97 as a student at Temasek Polytechnic. After classes, a few students and I will quietly sneak into Dr Iskandar studio and gazed at him creating his masterpiece from a lump of clay. That was when I started my apprenticeship with him. I continued to worked with him on numerous projects from 2002 to 2004, however, juggling work and life took me away from ceramics for a few years. Following my passion, for ceramics I re-apprenticed with him in 2011.
My creations
While versed in a repertoire of clays and methods, I work wholly with porcelain to create hand-thrown vessels. I source for inspiration in life, nature and explore the use of raw resources collected during my travels to enliven my works. My methodology is to create aesthetically sound art that embodies its spirit and tells a story of its own.
With their delicate form and subtleties of colour and tone, her vessels exude a gentle luminosity.

Where the Journey Led
Having left the corporate world in June 2022, I set up my long-awaited Porcelain Studio in the comfort of the humble haven, called home. This blessed space will be used to create new exciting works, and a gathering place to share and build the fellowship of Art as a part of life with the public.
