Social Creatives adopts a triangular engagement of Mentor Artists, Emerging Artists and Non-Artists:
As some Mentor Artists have exclusivity clauses with their art galleries, we are not able to share their involvement in much detail. Previous Mentor Artists include a Programme Leader for Foundation studies in an Arts School, an Asst Professor from Nanyang Technological University: Art Design Media as well as artists who earn at least $15,000 per painting.
The team of Emerging Artists is managed by the Artistic Manager, Redzuan Salleh. Social Creatives takes pride in maximizing opportunities and welfare for our Emerging Artists.
FADILAH RAZIB
Fadilah majored in Printmaking at Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts. She highly prefers hands-on work to designing solely on a computer screen and explores on different mediums. Art-wise, she’s into painting, illustration, relief printing and crafting. In addition, she tries out mixed media on some of her works. She’s a self-professed lover of cats (and more cats) and draws inspiration from these felines for her creations. Her hobbies include splurging on unnecessary materials and creating more art, in new and varied styles.
RAHMAT BUANG (BUD)
Bud completed his NITEC in Mechatronics followed by a Diploma in Communication Management at Kaplan Higher Institute of Learning. A self-taught artist, Bud started exploring in visual arts only in 2012 and has been hooked ever since. He enjoys looking into abstract art and illustration, and is always seen experimenting with various styles at the artists’ studio. He is also a core member of Singapore’s most spanking social, cultural and musical collective, Bloco Singapura. Greatly passionate about music, he performs regularly, hypes up music lessons with Batucada beats and is often involved with Psychedelic Garage Rock band, Spacedays.
IZZAD RADZALI SHAH
Izzad lives in a world of his own where all of his imaginations come to life. The motifs that often appear in his drawings and paintings represent the artist's love-hate relationship with objects, people, space and time. His work often deals with the immediate and the mundane life of living in a sophisticated city like Singapore. He also enjoys music, travelling and photography. Izzad graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from LASALLE College of the Arts in partnership with Goldsmiths, University of London in 2013. .
CORINNE GAN YEE TING
She draws, she mails and she explores. She has been involved with Social Creatives since 2010 and is currently interested in post mailing. Corinne’s works focus on remembering the forgotten; for the dreamer, the curious, the melancholy, the artist, the writer, the romantic, the shy, the peculiar & the postal enthusiast. Corinne finds it difficult to overcome her not-so-talkative nature to fully throw herself into the networking game to build her exposure.
