Fiona Koh Email & Phone Number

Fiona Koh is currently a full-time creative consultant at Poppy Studio – a graphic design studio; as well as Whisky and Foxtrot LLP which specialises in creative direction for branding and exhibition designs. She has been an adjunct lecturer at Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (NAFA) since 2010 and is an associate lecturer at Republic Polytechnic (RP) since 2020. Her experience in education includes teaching and developing modules on design, interactive media and content development, learning and technology, entrepreneurship and professional practice. Koh was an Academic Mentor for NAFA Foundation Programme in AY2020/21 and is currently serving as a supervisor for students’ portfolio development at RP.Beyond her profession as a creative and an educator, Koh is also an artist whose practice utilises text, image and object to explore the power structure at play and ambiguities of language within the framework of semiotics and psychoanalysis. Her early practice is closely intertwined with the development of a Singaporean art collective, Vertical Submarine. As one of the co-founders, the collective is known for their room installations, such as A view with A Room (2009), The Garden of Forking Paths (2010) and John Martin: The Butcher and the Surgeon (2015) that engages the audience to look critically beyond the surface of the work. Her recent practice has seen a departure from an exclusive collective practice into individual efforts with her first solo exhibition, EËJA in 2016, held at the Institute of Contemporary Arts Singapore. Other recent group shows include Alma Matter (2018) and Singapore Utopia (2019). Koh was also shortlisted for the IMPART Art Awards for 2019.
