Biography of Daniel Kei Wo

WHO AM I:
I am Daniel Kei Wo, a Hong Kong-born sculptor,live in Singapore.I weaving the essence of contemplative spaces with the dynamic flow of modern life. Specializing in stainless steel, my sculptures reflect an interplay of light and form, creating dialogues between the environment and the viewer. Rooted in the belief that art should resonate with the soul, my work is an invitation to find harmony within the abstract. Each piece is a step in my continuous odyssey through the realms of reflection and innovation.

EDUCATION:My journey as an artist began in Hong Kong, where I was born in 1980. From a young age, I was captivated by the world of art, spending countless hours drawing and experimenting with sculpting materials. Without formal training, I taught myself the techniques and principles of sculpture, driven by an insatiable passion. My journey took me to the United States, where I had the opportunity to explore the rich art scenes of cities like New York and Los Angeles. These experiences broadened my perspective and deepened my understanding of modern art. After returning to Asia, I established myself in Singapore, where I’ve had the privilege of becoming one of the most successful young modern sculptors in the region. My work is a reflection of my self-taught roots, my global experiences, and my enduring love for the art of sculpture.
