Artist Interview: Po Yun Wang

This week marks our first collaboration with artist Po Yun Wang, also known as Jack, and the birth of a new series of figures - Picky Eaters! Kick starting our partnership is Picky Eaters: The Clown and as we eagerly await the drop, we had the chance to sit down with Jack for a quick interview.

Hey Jack! Thank you for doing this interview, and letting our readers get to know a little more about you and your artistic journey. What got you interested in art?

It was the only subject that I was good at when I was a kid.

Leonardo Da Vinci was my idol when I grew up.

I used to draw with pencils, but right now mostly i draw on photoshop and illustrator.

Parody i guess? I like making fun of pop culture and also thinking what will happen when iconic characters become normal people.

I would love to have more collaboration with different fields or artists.

I thought it would be funny if all these characters would rather eat their competitor's food instead.

Pho!

Anything with sci-fi.

I usually listen to Jazz radio when i am drawing.

The piece that i am most proud of is actually my thesis project that i did in 2008. I won the Adoble achievement Award because of this project.

Watch the Mighty Jaxx team talk about the conceptualisation of Picky Eaters: The Clown, mukbang style! Will their tongues survive the wrath of spicy food? Will we understand anything they say? Watch to find out!
