Sunny Chyun (b. 1979) is the winner of 2017 UOB Painting of the Year (Singapore), Established Artist Category. She is a multimedia artist who received her Master of Fine Art from the Korean National University of Arts. Ms Chyun’s art practice is in the tradition of Abstract Expressionism where she explores the tactile quality of materials to evoke emotions and challenge conventional approaches to art- making. Sunny has exhibited in Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan and the United States of America, and her works have been collected and commissioned by institutions, foundations and corporations.
In her latest exhibition, What Dreams Are Made Of, Ms Chyun uses different images from her dreams, such as precious gems, eggs and spider webs as the inspiration for her artworks. Ms Chyun’s artworks are often double-sided; changing their appearance according to the direction of light, how they are installed and where the viewer is standing.
Ms Chyun’s artworks are created with different types of media such as paint and canvas and feature the use of different materials such as gilded thread, sequins and glow-in-the-dark threads. These elements combine to create a visual treat which unlocks the imagination of her audience.
From 9am to 6.30pm every Monday to Saturday until the 4th of November 2018, art lovers are welcome to visit the exhibition of 15 art pieces.
