alysha rahman shah

Alysha (b. 1995) is a Singaporean visual artist with a BA(Hons) in Fine Arts from Lasalle College of the Arts. Although she is a Printmaker who specializes in the art of Lithography, she now works in collaboration with other mixed media pieces such as embroidery, experimentation with textiles and installations.

Conceptually her works center around South-East Asian myth, mythology and mysticism. She creates works and embroideries that explore themes pertinent to the supernatural realm. Expressing her affinity for metaphysical conception through her work, she allows for her audience to view this representation through her perceptions and beliefs. Hoping to eradicate the fear usually that accompanies these topics, her works are portrayed in an ethereal and occasionally comical manner. 

During her batik residency she intends to attempt incorporating embroidery into batik while learning the different techniques of creating batik pieces.
