about

Khor Ke Xin (b.1994) is an illustrator, visual artist and creative leader based in Singapore.

Her body of works ranges from digital and traditional illustrations to large-scale murals and immersive installations.

She is most known for co-founding Lucid, an immersive entertainment company that creates the hit experiential attraction, The Bubble Tea Factory, and well-loved character IP, Otah & Friends.

コー・ケシンはシンガポールを拠点に独学で学ぶ芸術家です。絵画に対する情熱は幼少期からはじまり、荒野の畑や貯水池のある穏やかな雰囲気を持つクランジで育ちました。彼女を取り巻く豊富な自然は、徐々にアート制作に夢中になるきっかけとなりました。(Translated by Studio Kura)

beginnings

After working as a marketer for a few years, I decided to make a career switch to pursue my first love - drawing. My first entry to art: completed an artist residency with Studio Kura and exhibited my first solo show in Itoshima, Fukuoka, Japan.
