Originally from Singapore and currently based in East London,
Cassandra Yap is an accomplished artist and art director whose screen prints blend vintage aesthetics with surrealist themes. Fuelled by a fascination with vintage pin ups, the female form, and a deep interest in vintage erotica, she creates bold, dark, and humorous imagery, often exploring the juxtaposition between the macabre and the beautiful. Her artistic focus began gaining significant traction around 2010 with early appearances in print showcases, where she began developing her signature photomontage halftone style.
Cassandra Yap utilizes the intensive hands on screen printing process to create limited edition prints often featuring intricate hand applied screen printed layers and in some cases hand foiled details. The work is characterized by a strong and empowering narrative that explores themes of identity and the reclamation of classic imagery. Significant accomplishments for
Cassandra Yap include being commissioned to create original bespoke artwork for the historic venue The Black Cap in Camden. There was also a collaboration with the luxury brand
All Saints to customize a signature leather jacket for a charity auction at the
Serpentine Gallery. Furthermore the portfolio includes a commission from the British perfume house
Penhaligon's to create bespoke postcard artworks for a significant anniversary celebration.
The artistic presence of this creator extends to numerous gallery shows and exhibitions across the United Kingdom and internationally. Key participations include the
Print Club London Blisters Blackout in 2010 as well as the
London Illustration Fair in 2013 and appearances at the
Affordable Art Fair in both Battersea and Hampstead. Evidence of this career trajectory can be found in exhibitions at the
Film 4 Summer Screen print show at Somerset House in 2014 and 2015 and a solo show at
Laylow Art Gallery in Palma de Mallorca. The work was also featured in the
Wall Street Gallery Revolution group show located in Los Angeles.
Famous pieces and notable limited edition screen printed works by Cassandra Yap include Till Death and Deliverance along with Daydreamer and Cruel Intentions. Other recognized titles are Bisou and the Serendipity series which often features gold and holographic foil accents. These works characterized by a subversive take on classic romance and desire have solidified a strong reputation within the limited edition print collector community and among those who value high quality poster art. By focusing on the intersection of fine art and graphic design the artist continues to produce sought after pieces for galleries such as Print Club London while maintaining a distinct visual language that resonates with modern collectors.
