Please join us for the opening celebration Wednesday, 10th June 6-9pm

Andrew Yeoh, known professionally as Drewfunk, is a Malaysian-born multi-disciplinary artist recognised as a pioneer of the Malaysian graffiti movement. After establishing his early practice in Kuala Lumpur, he relocated to Melbourne in 2003 to undertake a Bachelor’s degree in Multimedia & Design at RMIT University, where he became involved in the city’s formative street art and stencil culture.

Working across painting, murals, street art, and illustration, Drewfunk’s practice examines the intersection of Eastern and Western visual languages, recontextualising cultural heritage through the lens of contemporary urban art. Informed by his background in graffiti and design, his works draw upon memory, migration, nostalgia, and identity, often incorporating animals and mythological motifs as recurring symbolic forms.

Balancing refined composition with the raw immediacy of street culture, Drewfunk’s work reflects an ongoing dialogue between tradition and contemporary expression. Over the course of his career, he has presented twelve solo exhibitions across Australia and Malaysia, alongside numerous group exhibitions, public and private art projects and establishing a significant presence within both the contemporary and street art landscape.
