Danny Raven Tan; To Be A Social Whore

Daniel Raven Tan is, without a doubt, an exceedingly eccentric individual; part of which has been molded by his arduous and difficult personal life; his father passing away, his mother slowly giving into Dementia, and him only recently having defeated pancreatic cancer, which he hasn’t told his parents yet. Such a difficult life has been a towering influence over his art, which he exhibits in his own home, a rather unremarkable HDB. He was a stoic, yet straightforward view of life; telling everything as he sees it and wasting no time on what he deems frivolous sugar-coating of the inevitable. He spoke of self-promotion, which he himself deems shameless, and even paragons it to prostituting oneself; giving away one’s own dignity and humility to promote one’s own work.
