ABOUT THE ARTIST

Daniel Yu (b.1985) 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. Daniel's works offer a means of escapism from the real world yet remain largely shaped by his personal experiences. His fictitious characters see a cult following amongst the urban and subculture art scene in both Singapore and abroad.
