This is a sub-series of my “Rorschach’s” series of artworks, exploring our identity while our minds tether between the outside physical world and the ever confusing digital world. The “Rorschach’s” is inspired by the Rorschach test, a psychological projective test that can provide insight to an individual’s identity, thought processes, mental health and emotional functioning via the perception of a series of ink blots. In this series, I combine nature into mirrored forms, emulating ink blots, which could look like Lepidoptera, crustaceans etc.
In this piece, cyanotype is combined with watercolors to form a shape loosely inspired by the Oleander Hawk Moth. I have layered some fallen Trumpet tree flowers (it is Trumpet tree blooming season here in Singapore) over the cyanotype chemistry before exposing to full spectrum light. I have also added 24k gold leaf to the piece.
Important Note: For US collectors, due to the new tariffs and de minimus rule, this piece can only be shipped via registered document (invoice and Certificate of Authentication will be emailed digitally). Artwork will be shipped from Singapore via Singpost.

In 2014, I had been going to art conventions for years, and I noticed a consistent puzzle. Artists were all talking about the struggle to sell, and everyone else was talking about the struggle to buy. Artists wanted to sell more work and experiment more outside their comfort zone. And the people buying wanted to buy more than they did. But the artists had to be consistent at these shows, and their art was often (deservedly) out of a starting collector’s price range.
I created Every Day Original to solve this puzzle. And it’s become much more.
At “EDO,” as it was soon called, we created a platform for artists to experiment with small work and for everyone to be able to start their art collection. Over the years, the success of EDO has allowed us to showcase new voices and voices that might otherwise not be “big” enough. Because we feature new work every single day, everyone has an opportunity to start their collection and support this vision.
By joining our mailing list, you join a community of people who believe that art isn’t just a commodity. It’s a passion and way of life that deserves to be seen and celebrated every day.
