Desmond Gabriel Pravin (b. 1997, Singapore) is a contemporary artist working primarily in ceramics and three-dimensional forms. He graduated in 2019 with a Diploma in Fine Arts from the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts, majoring in Ceramics. His practice often incorporates materials such as clay, wood, and styrofoam to construct installations that explore themes of memory, transformation, and spirituality.  Desmond’s work is shaped by three core influences—Culture, Nature, and Religion—which intersect through the theme of Communication. These elements inform his ongoing engagement with ideas of justice, fairness, and equality, grounding his conceptual approach in both personal and collective narratives.  His ceramic practice, Ash & Clay, reflects a sustained exploration of transformation through the elemental processes of earth, fire, and form. These stages are understood not only as part of the ceramic cycle but as metaphors for larger spiritual and existential rhythms—creation, destruction, and renewal. Drawing from various religious and cultural frameworks, his works serve as quiet meditations on impermanence, resilience, and the unseen forces that shape material and spiritual life.
