As one of Singapore’s foremost pop artists whose design projects reflect a fine sense of contemporary design flavoured with an essence of Singapore traditions, Justin’s work deserves accolades as both designer and artist. His approach to design is executed with current graphic fundamentals yet reflects traditional techniques such as his ongoing series based on paper-cutting and Chinese woodblock printing styles. The themes and imagery with which he interprets his commissioned design work underscore familiar Asian cultures with a delightful pop treatment that celebrates Asian values in an endearing tongue-in-cheek manner. He was handpicked to train at the prestigious Singapore Tyler Print Institute to train with world-renowned artists such as Frank Stella and Donald Sultan.
This painting was created at his Beijing residency during the 2008 Beijing Olympics, and thus reflects the iconic motifs and triumphant spirit of the occasion.
