Junie Tang (b.1978) attained her bachelor’s degree in Visual Communication at Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (in collaboration with the University of Western Sydney) in 2002. With eight years of experience as a graphic designer and art director in publishing houses and creative design agencies, she started teaching the diploma and degree in Visual Communication programmes at First Media Design School in 2010. After completing a master’s degree programme in Arts and Cultural Management at LASALLE College of the Arts (in collaboration with Goldsmiths, University of London) in 2015, she began making art through the media of photography and printmaking.
As a graphic designer-educator who has crossed over to the realm of art, Junie’s interests revolve around the idea of synthesising art and design, and investigating the role of a graphic designer in the society. Currently a PhD candidate at the Nanyang Technological University, School of Art, Design and Media, her research focuses on expanding the role of a graphic designer as a curator, which involves transforming him/her from a problem-solver into a problematiser.
Since 2016, Junie has exhibited her works in several group shows, namely, “Double Vision Art Exhibition” at Objectifs (2016), “Dot to Dot” group exhibition at NAFA’s Centre of Lifelong Education (2018), “Interruption, Scenes from Crossroads of Arts and Research” at Selegie Arts Center (2018), “Defamiliarization” at Supernormal (2019), and “The Non-essential Artist Month” at Blue Ocean Fine Art Gallery (2020).
