An Interview with Ivory - our guest designer

hello! this is the first part of our introduction interviews with the team behind Artitude, bcos we know you are curious! To all folks and friends who have been through with us through these exciting 3 years since we first started on this journey - thank you so much and it is your love for us and our works that keep us going!

so.... here our special interview with Ivory:

Apart from designing, what do you do?
I love to make handicrafts, paint and do photography.
Learning about plants and herbs, as well as mind training also fascinates me!

When did you know you were an artist/designer?

I don't really identify myself so much as artist or designer – I just love doing it…its my life! Ever since I was 5 or 6 years old, I was already making little pieces of art and my love for drawing and sketching bloomed when I was in Primary school.

Who has been most influential and what inspires you in your work?

I guess it has been my family and friends who also appreciate the finer details in life.
Nature never fails to inspire me!

How would you describe your creative process?
I think good design provides good solution. So I always ponder how I can make a difference in the daily life through my creative work.

A piece of art work starts begins from an indescribable feeling or inspiration and my art is to express it. Any method/medium that can express it well makes my best pieces of art.


Is there any art piece that you own which you most treasure?

Of course, any art pieces made and given to me by friends!

How do you vision yourself in the next 10 years?
Well, it is not easy especially in Singapore, but I will still persist in crafting, painting and designing :D

Ivory is Artitude's guest designer and her very popular designs include Bamboo forest, Flowers and the latest Dragon.,
a prolific designer and entrepreneur, she was the brain child of highly successful fashion boutique ArtIris for 10 years. for interest, she makes and conducts private classes on wire jewellery making : )
