Ryan Loi (pen name 夜焱) is a Calligraphy artist. His works encompass strong imagery and evocative brush strokes, which are deeply inspired by his interest in zen philosophy, contemporary art forms and his roots in South East Asian culture. Under the tutelage of Japanese Calligraphy Master, Kimie Nagai 永井 公栄 (pen name 蒼椰), his journey began by studying the classic styles of Calligraphy and imitating the works of masters.Having trained in various forms of western art, Ryan entered the field of design and advertising where his works have won awards in various international competitions. He plays a pivotal role in placing the Singapore media industry on the global platform, sharing the limelight with top players such as BBC Worldwide Global Channels, CNN, Sony Pictures, National Geographic, MTV Networks and Walt Disney. Currently, he is the Creative Director of Whitewood Creative Co. His Calligraphy works have been seen on television, theatre, musicals, restaurants, event exhibitions, furniture, commercial merchandise and private collections.While being a multidisciplinary designer, it is photography and typography that has influenced Ryan. Transferring the play of light and shadow in Photography onto ink and paper in Calligraphy, Ryan seeks to capture the essence of a unique moment that is commonly found in both forms. The moment where the camera clicks; the moment where the brush touches the paper, a moment where creation is birthed. An irreversible action that is unique to moment itself.“Every stroke of the brush is a step closer to inking an intimate connection between artist and viewer. That is where one soul awakens the other.” This is Ryan’s belief in Calligraphy.To view his portfolio for Whitewood Creative Co., please visit www.whitewoodcreative.com
