Biography















As an artist, illustrator & educator, Tan Haur enjoys working through cross-disciplinary collaboration and social engagement art to obtain unique artistic lingo. He utilizes art technologies, mixed media, and genres to achieve interesting tonal spectrum and to reveal an unfolding story within the work itself.
