Ahead of his final weeks at RISD, artist Joel Seow talks about everything from his early love of dinosaur illustrations to the recent introduction of egg tempera to his practice.

Joel is an artist from Singapore who is currently pursuing his undergraduate degree in painting at the Rhode Island School of Design. Approaching representational painting with a contemporary sensibility, he is concerned with ideas surrounding autobiography and personal symbolism, the tension between intimacy and urban isolation, and how one’s memory and state of mind interact with familiar spaces. His works have been featured in exhibitions in both Singapore and the United States.
