Arlyn De Jesus

"My art is fuelled by the throbbing energy of cities and the peculiarities of the people that give them their distinctive character. Old and new, cities have this irrepressible beat that keeps my creative process going."

I create paintings and ceramics that build on my fascination with and immersion in urban life. My penchant for irregular forms, blurred lines, flawed perspective, and deconstructed elements is based on my premise that experiences are very much a function of the unique processing of the human mind - that there is no absolute interpretation of anything seen and experienced.

Largely self-taught, I started my art journey through painting in 2005 after moving to Singapore from Manila. Over the last few years, I have expanded my exploration into ceramics as another form of expression. My artworks have been part of several exhibitions in Singapore and have already found their way into collectors' homes around the world.
