Yin Chua, Singapore
~ the artist that paints peace ~

Yin Chua’s art is mostly inspired by the spiritual practice of meditation and her love for nature. She hopes to be known as the artist that paints peace and strives to spread the message of self love through her art.

Yin often drew inspiration from Zen philosophies, she especially love the mindfulness teachings. In addition, a 10 days silent retreat had greatly impacted her, steering her towards a minimalist lifestyle. This in turn is reflected in the art she makes. She hopes her pieces will bring a sense of calm beauty into the space they hang.

Born a creative, Yin founded an advertising and design agency in 2008 and a photography studio in 2012. She loves what she does, but deep down, lays a nagging desire to pursue that childhood dream of being an artist. In mid-2016, Yin finally made a gradual transition towards fine art. Her work has since found ways into collectors' homes all around the world.

Yin studied Art during her Junior College years and graduated with honours from The School of Communications, Nanyang Technological University, specialising in advertising.
