Alecia Neo
Visual artist.
The Story So Far
Alecia Neo (b. 1986) graduated from Nanyang Technological University’s School of Art, Design and Media (ADM), with a degree in Photography and Digital Imaging. Her work involves social, relational and community elements, often thought provoking and informed by rigorous research.
One of Alecia’s notable works is her ongoing long-term experimental education project, Unseen: Constellations, which offers a platform for youths living with visual impairment to explore self-identity and their future. Her commitment to her craft has clinched her the 2013 Young Talent Programme Winner’s Solo Exhibition by ION Art Gallery and Affordable Art Fair, Singapore for ‘Wondering, Wandering’.
As artist lead and co-founder of Brack - a platform for socially engaged art making - Alecia helps initiate and develop projects with other artists. She is also the Director of Unseen Art Ltd, a non-profit arts company with a focus on developing arts projects with diverse communities. Always keen to contribute to the arts scene in Singapore, Alecia is also a part-time tutor at her alma mater.
