Aiman

b. 1984, Singapore

Aiman is a well-known contemporary artist within the Singapore art scene, particularly for pushing the boundaries of high art and pop art.

Since he graduated with a Diploma in Fine Arts (Painting) from LASALLE College of the Arts in 2004, Aiman has exhibited both regionally and overseas, including at the National Art Gallery (KL) and the Sunshine International Museum in China. His works have also earned him the Winston Oh Travel Award, the Georgette Chen Scholarship as well as the Lasalle-SIA Scholarship.

Aiman’s ongoing series deals with the issue of conformity in society by exploring the seemingly “absurd” notion of self-individuation in a culture still dominated by communal ideologies. Fittingly, this emphasis also allows him to use his works as a platform for activism and transcend the nature of the culture which his artworks address.
