Shavonne Wong

Shavonne Wong is a Singaporean new media artist working with 3D and AI.

Early life and education Wong was born in Singapore. She attended Temasek Polytechnic, where she graduated with a diploma in information technology.

In 2014, she undertook a month-long residency at the School of Visual Arts in New York City.

Career Wong began working professionally as a photographer in the early 2010s. In 2010, she co-founded Zhiffy Photography, a Singapore-based photography studio. Her on-set style led to repeated invitations as a featured photographer on Asia's Next Top Model cycles in 2017 and 2018, giving her pan-regional visibility. In 2020, she was also included in the Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia list in the arts category. The collection sold out within an hour, and actor Idris Elba later acquired three works on the secondary market.

In 2022, Wong worked with Lenne Chai on By Proxy, overlaying her virtual avatars onto Chai's photographs of Singapore neighbourhoods to evoke childhood memories.

In 2023, Wong presented her first solo exhibition, The Ties That Bind, at Singapore's UltraSuperNew Gallery, where from 18 to 31 March she presented interactive augmented-reality installations and dynamic NFT works that invited reflection on human connection.

In 2024, Wong debuted Meet Eva Here, an interactive installation built around a conversational AI companion named "Eva." It premiered in the ArtScience Museum Singapore, then was later shown in ART SG 2025 and Taipei Dangdai 2025. There was also a performance lecture about it at Art Central 2025 (HK). Later, Wong's solo exhibition EVA was exhibited at The Columns Gallery, Singapore.

Wong's digital works have been shown at the Cameroon Pavilion of the 59th Venice Biennale (2022), Art Dubai (2022) and SEA Focus, Singapore (2022). She also collaborated with Marie Claire Arabia in 2023 and created 3D art models of Arab women which were exhibited in Paris. In 2025, she worked with Shu Uemura to create the first phygital collection. Later that year, she created a new video work, The Bubble We Call Home, for AP60.
