Born in 1978 and from a family with both parents as public servants, Singway grew up in a small town in northern Taiwan called Yingge, a place quite famous for ceramic arts and production of pottery and porcelain. Surrounded by pottery-making studios and workshops, Singway had been enjoying watching those craftspeople draw all kinds of image on the ceramic wares. In her childhood years, clay, beautiful mosaics, and junk pottery were her favorite toys and precious collections. She immersed herself in this artistic environment until she left for Taipei for college education.

Singway graduated from Fu Jen Catholic University with a major in philosophy and minor in history. This educational background prepared her for perceiving things always from multiple points of view. Singway first began creating in her early twenties. As an artist, her current endeavor is to employ various media to illustrate her philosophic reflections on the vicissitudes of life or simply the pure and beautiful feeling from her innermost.

She found that many natural objects have their own marks and textures – they are art by themselves. She then directly imprinted the textures of the natural objects on painting paper or canvas and added some finishing touch to bring a new life to it. Her creation with the imprint of wall marks, for example, reveals a unique classical appeal and historical tint. In 2010, she sent her imprinting series to juried competition of Salon d’Automne in Paris for the first time and two of her works, “The wall is a landscape painting” and “beyond the cave” were selected into this hundred-year-old exposition, one of the most influential exhibitions of the world. It is considered a “sacred temple” in the art circles, for many world masters developed their art career from here, including Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Claude Monet, Paul Cézanne, Joan Miró, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, and Auguste Rodin.

Artistic style is a projection of the artist’s inner world. A sensible and thoughtful inner self can naturally develop into diverse personal styles. After wining the recognition from France’s Salon d’Automne, Singway was not thus content with herself; she continues to explore her inner depths and the outer world. To transform, she completely opens herself to different possibilities and since then has created many stylistically distinctive series. Her “Brushing Wonder” and ”Let’s Play” series blend reality and fantasy with bright and cheerful colors to bring out the liveliness and fun of a child’s imagination residing in everyone of us. The ensuing “Good Word Good World” series puts together Chinese writing scripts and cartoon-like monkey to create an aura of blessing and jolliness.

For 2019, Singway exhibits three different series. In addition to her ever popular “This Is Very Contemporary – The Temple of Edfu,” inaugurated in 2015, she presents two new series: “The Cat on Travel” and “Wealth Plan.” She wishes we can all enjoy spiritual and material wealth.

Singway believes that a female artist, no matter her age, has three souls inside her: child, lady, and woman. Her “Lady and Kitty” series is to capture a young girl’s romantic sentiments – even a woman in her thirties may still wish to put every worldly concerns aside and travel with her darling kitty wherever. And her “Woman．Art of Tactics” is to provide her philosophic thinking of how a woman survives with dignity and even succeeds gracefully in the contemporary society, and the answer to which is offered in her newest series entitled “Dance the Rhythm of the World.” That is, to dance in accord with the rhythmic harmony and balance of the universe – and this gist of balance and harmony is demonstrated in her mastery of the line structure – glossed as “structure energy” – as inscribed on the body of the female dancer.
