Phunk Studio is a Singapore-based contemporary art and design collective formed by four Singaporean artists/designers: Alvin Tan, Melvin Chee, Jackson Tan, and William Chan. Phunk began its life in 1994 when its members were fellow design students at LASALLE College of the Arts.〔(Computer Arts Magazine Interview )〕 They blend and reinterpret their influences, such as traditional Chinese mythology, craft, philosophy, and folklore, Hong Kong wuxia, Japanese manga and otaku subculture, Western popular culture, art, and design movements, into creations that reflect their multicultural identity, background, and environment. They challenge the conventional notion of the artist and the commercial design studio by blurring the boundaries between both by focussing on new approaches to visual expressions. Their projects span art, design, publishing, fashion, music, film, and interactive media. Phunk has worked with brands such as Nike, Nokia, MTV, Daimler Chrysler, Comme des Garçons, Levi's, and Tiger Beer. Their work is featured in international publications and awarded in design award shows. One of their artworks, titled ''Electricity'', was cited in the book ''Graphic Design, A New History''〔(Graphic Design, A New History )〕 as "Instances of truly global graphic design." They were awarded "Designer of the Year" in 2007 at the Singapore President's Design Award,〔(President's Design Awards )〕 the nation's highest accolade, for their significant achievements and contributions to design. They have exhibited and lectured around the world. They represented Singapore at the Gwangju Biennale 2005 and the London Design Festival 2006. The Singapore History Museum hosted their 10-year retrospective exhibition, ''A Decade of Decadence'', in 2005. ==Gallery== File:Control_chaos.jpg|Control Chaos, 2003 File:Universality_I.jpg|Universality I, 2007 File:Universality_set2.jpg|Universality II, 2007 File:NewWorldTriptych.jpg|New World Triptych, 2008 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Phunk Studio」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
