The path to becoming a fine artist is seldom a straight line, a truth vividly embodied by Singaporean artist Wyn-Lyn Tan. With an initial academic pursuit in business, a stint as a lifestyle magazine writer, and finally a full-time dedication to fine arts, Tan's journey is a testament to the transformative power of a calling and the courage to answer it. "I've always known I wanted to do something in art, and one day realised that 'hey, it's now or never"," she says, reflecting on her decisive leap into the art world.
Educated at the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (Nafa) and the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, and later at the Art Academy in Tromsø, Tan's multicultural and multidisciplinary background is a rich palette from which she draws her unique artistic language. Her works, while abstract, are deeply rooted in nature, carrying echoes of her traditional training in Chinese ink painting and a profound influence from her experiences in Northern Europe.
