Iyvone collaborates with scientists and environmental activists to highlight the beauty of nature and the devastating effects of the global climate crisis.

Iyvone Khoo (b. 1975 in Singapore) works in diverse media including glass, photography, video and bioluminescence. Often employing a spirit of investigative play, she considers how perception shapes experience, sometimes using the camera lens as a surrogate eye. Situated in the complex overlap and contrast between ideas of nature and the artificial, Khoo’s sculptures, videos and installations focus on ephemerality, containment and the transitory nature of existence. Khoo earned her MFA at Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts, London and was awarded the Berengo Student Prize. She is a recipient of the prestigious MEAD Fellowship Award, which allowed her to collaborate with scientists from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography on projects incorporating light-emitting organisms such as bioluminescent algae. Her works are held in private collections in the USA, UK, Jamaica, Belgium and Singapore.
