About

Following a thirty-year career in corporate management, John transitioned to full-time art practice in 2021. He holds a business degree from Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand, and is currently completing a Bachelor of Fine Arts at LASALLE College of the Arts, Singapore (2026). Shaped by his experience as part of the Malaysian Chinese diaspora, and by having lived across multiple cultural contexts, his cross-cultural perspective informs his artistic inquiry and sensibility.
