Designing Connection
Creating ethical, sensory, and research-driven narratives through design and digital media.
I studied Fine Art Painting and built strong visual depth. Then, I became drawn to contemporary art that questions social and global structures, and continued producing work after graduation in my own time after hours of TBWA\. My work has been shown at the Singapore Art Museum, National Gallery Singapore, and the Athens Film Festival, and two pieces are held in the KADIST collection.
Painting shaped my sensory intuition. Contemporary art shaped my sharp anthropologic lens. Advertising shaped my clarity, humor, communication, and strategic thinking. These three foundations anchor who I am as a creative.
From these roots, I now design digital narrative systems where the message is precise, the experience is sensory and expansive, and complex contexts become clear and immersive.

Perry Essig
Global Creative Leader
Avis is everything you look for in a creative - smart, driven, talented, funny, endlessly inquisitive and yes, actually creative (in the truest sense of the word - just ask to see her fine arts work). She brings a fresh approach to things, with unexpected, lateral thinking that is increasingly uncommon. Highly recommended.

It was a blast working with Avis! She is a talented, hard-working and responsible creative who is also one of the most introspective human beings I’m honoured to have spent time with. I feel smarter, funnier, and wiser when I’m with her. She questions, listens, and always delivers. Work would always feel like play whenever we’re ideating because of how much fun we’d have. But more than that, I’m always proud of the work we produce together. I absolutely miss working with her and wish we could collaborate again someday. Whoever gets to experience her mind is one lucky fella!
