Joyce Loo’s inclination with clay was from 1998 and began her creative career since 2008 where she gave up her lucrative job to pursuit her passion in arts. A self-taught artist of great ingenuity, her works are a visual harmony on colours, textures and a composition of her sensibilities towards nature Joyce was represented in several local and international exhibitions such as 2005 in Japan, 2008 in Cannakkale University Fine Arts of Turkey, 2014 in The Art student league of New York , 2015 in Taipei, Taiwan , 2016 in Chang Chun, China and 2018 in New Delhi, India. She also actively participated in Singapore Sculpture Society Annual exhibitions,events as well as Wessex Estate Artwalk events in Singapore.
Her 1st solo exhibition “My Eden” was held at the Fort Canning Park in 2010 and 2nd solo exhibition “Embrace” at Viridian Art House.

Her artworks display strong affinity to nature and earth, where she creates clay sculptural forms inspired from flora and fauna. Beside the love of textures and color glaze of ceramic sculptures she also start to explores the beauty of sculptures on marble stone 
This series ”My National Flower” is Joyce personal interpretation of the orchid, she created this series which speaks of nationalism and a sense of identity. Each flower carries a personality of its own, and represents the individual’s perspective country they are born and raised in, as well as the cultivation of changes seen throughout the years.
