Yeok’s February and March report 2014
One of my new year resolutions is to get better at managing my time, reduce procrastination and spend more quality time with family and friends. Also, by disclosing my work and life hours, I hope I can help reducing misconceptions about an artist’s life. Yes I do have a day job (I do design and growth […]
Artwalk with Yeok: First visit to Counihan Gallery in Brunswick
I was rather impressed with the two shows presented by Counihan Gallery. It was the first time I visited the gallery because a friend was part of a group show. The two shows are so well blended into each other, it was hard to tell where each photo belongs after I head home. I love […]
My work from uni time
I have been trying to find this piece of my work I did back in uni. Finally I have found it 🙂 Even though it has horrible font choice, awkward pace and audio copyright issue (it was taken from a Linkin Park’s track), it’s still interesting to see it today.

Artwalk with Yeok: CreatureCreature’s “AKIN” at Ruffian Gallery featuring Kwasi “Running (Higher)”
It was certainly a worthwhile visit to Footscray. CreatureCreature’s first show in 2014 at Ruffian gallery was not business as usual. Painting and paste up on all three walls in the gallery space reveals their ever evolving passion for street art. There were also limited edition prints for you to hold on to. www.creaturecreature.com.au We got there […]
From concept to installation
The other day I was flipping through my sketch book, and I found this sketch for my show “In search of happiness”, and it was an amazing feeling when you place the sketch and the final show side by side. Written descriptions Most galleries are booked 6 months in advance, some of them are even […]
Artwalk with Yeok: Julia deVILLE at Melbourne Now
I have been seeing Julia deVille‘s work in varies shows and art fairs, but nothing prepare me for this intimate little space she has curated with her works and NGV collections. Her works give me the same feeling I get when I’m making art, a little scenario of uncertainty. I love to be in between […]

Artwalk with Yeok: At home with the Hotham Street Ladies
This is the first artwalk video in 2014, you might have noticed few changes. Finally I learnt how to upload HD videos properly, and I have decided to limit each video to one artist/show only. I have thought about voice over many times, but after few attempts, they just don’t seem to work. But I […]
Hack your career the artist way
One of my relative at her early 20s just talked to me about getting started with her career. “I’m glad you asked.” I said. Not because I’m awesome at finding jobs myself (in fact I have never attended a job interview), but because we all have to sharpen ourselves for the perfect opportunities in our […]

A selection of sculptures, installations and paintings have come to life in the gallery space. […]
