Meet the Artist: Cynthia Delaney Suwito
CANVAS/S: Tale as New as Time
by LearnX Arts
Cynthia Delaney Suwito is a visual artist who explores the theme of everyday objects and experiences. She uses observational humour to explore such daily phenomena as the omnipresence of instant noodles, the misfortunes of plastic bags, the misuse of clothes pegs, and the perpetual turning of toilet paper rolls. Her work gives spaces for everyday objects to challenge its own mundanity. Her work takes varied forms, many of which are site specific, interactive sculptures and installations.
Born in Indonesia and based in Singapore, Cynthia completed her Bachelor in Fine Arts, at LASALLE College of the Arts, Singapore. Cynthia was featured on BBC Asia and CNA, and was in the 2017 FORBES 30 under 30 Asia in the Arts. She has exhibited at Bandung Contemporary Art Award Assemblage (2019), Indonesia, and at Superfluidity: The Parallel Universes Daily Mimicry (2022), Taipei. In Singapore, Cynthia exhibited at Singapore International Photography Festival (2022), Eat Play Love (2024) and Keys Under the Sofa (2024) and had a solo presentation while we wait (2020).
