Formed in 2020, Paradise Now is a Multimedia Artist Collective (Bryan Tan, Jay Ho) whose artworks assimilate a diversity of daily influences drawn from perception through observation.

With a penchant for amalgamating incompatible elements, Paradise Now grows as a natural synergy of conflicting histories and personal experiences - they seek to explore the notion of space/mental space, memories, emotions, symbolism and metaphors through multidisciplinary approaches.

Paradise Now is a repository for their thoughts and memories that would otherwise fade away with the business of daily living.
