[PRESSPLAY] #ARTISTANONYMOUS - Toy Makers at Library@Orchard (Jan 21) - featuring Daniel Yu & Pobber

PRESSPLAY ARTISTANONYMOUS - Toy Makers
EVENT PRESS: "You might have seen their works, now get to know the people behind them. #ArtistAnonymous is our series of PRESSPLAY panel talks where we invite local artisans to talk about their profession, and share their collaborative works done with fellow creatives.

In our Toy Makers session, meet young local toymakers that have made their mark in the realm of vinyl collectibles. The talk invites Daniel Yu, an independent creator and Pobber, a studio that works with artists to realise their designs."

ARTIST BIO: Daniel Yu is a Singaporean sculptor who works primarily in the medium of clay and resin. Heavily influenced by an upbringing steeped in local tradition, as well as pop culture ephemera; his works combine both worlds of imagination. His investigations centre on the intrinsic value of memory and the use of storytelling as a tool that highlights social and cultural similarities. His works offer a means of escapism from the real world, yet remain largely shaped by his personal experiences. Daniel’s fictitious characters see a cult following amongst the urban and subculture art scene in both Singapore and abroad."

Entry to the event is FREE, and you can register online here, as well check out more of PRESSPLAY’s events on Facebook.
