Ignatius Yeo
Ignatius Yeo pursued his visual art journey in 2009. He is largely a self-developed
visual artist who fell in love with ink-wash approach in minimalist style. His works
exude a strong blend in fusing Eastern-Western styles and approach. Although his
techniques may seem Western, it is predominantly Chinese brush painting in
philosophy; of lines, strokes, tones, placement and positive-negative space for that
dynamism and harmonic balance of all elements within his compositions.
​
He loves to trawl and troll back alleys and streets with his Guan Dao pens to walk his
dot and waltz with his lines. Over the year, he had developed his own unique identity
and signature style although he is ever evolving due to his restless explorative and
experimental nature. He would experiment with different medium, techniques and
substrates.
​
He is one of the 4 artists commissioned by Frasers Centrepoint to paint the 22m long
by 4m high wall mural on basement 2 of The Centrepoint Mall in 2015 and one of the
two artists commissioned by Pek Kio Community Club to paint a 5m long by 3m high
wall mural along Cambridge Road in 2020.
His works are collected by corporations, individuals and public figure in Singapore,
Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Canada.
​
He sees himself as a time traveller (時空行者) traversing space-time-space to eat to
live to eat and walk his dot.
