ABOUT YOK AND SHERYO
Sheryo is a brooklyn based singaporean visual/mural artist who started painting in the streets in 2005.
Her art seeks to investigate, analyze and document the human psyche and frustrations towards contemporary lifestyles and its mercurial nature. She works across mediums,from 2D paintings to 3D sculptures, installations and moving images.
Her style, often referencing pulp illustrations, skateboard graphics and her unabashed affinity for kitsch, translate across as jovial, surreal imagery that speak to those who grew up admiring ’80s and ’90s skateboarding and surfing culture. She has exhibited and painted murals around the world with Yok.
