Cultivating A Generation of
Young Visual Thinkers

Lynn Teo

Having studied Art at ‘O’ and ‘A’ Levels, Lynn went on to pursue a Degree in the Fine Arts at the esteemed School of Visual Arts in New York City. After almost a decade of dabbling in the Arts abroad, Lynn returned to Singapore with the hope to cultivate a young generation of visual thinkers. She discovers her true passion in engaging young children through Art. Having studied Art History from a young age, Lynn realises its importance in broadening her mind and triggering profound sensibilities. She aspires to be a part of the journey of moulding young children to think visually, and strongly believes that every child can become better versions of themselves via the avenue of Art.

Lynn's works have been published in the Art Directors' Annuals and was also one of the 25 students of her cohort to be awarded special honors at graduation.
