Pure Libre

Singapore
Mohamed Nor Azhar aka Pure Libre, a Singapore true blood, started experimenting graffiti and street art in 2005 and has not look back since.
He was heavily influenced by street style and now tries to separate his art from other graffiti artists.

Being small and unrecognized, Pure Libre has driven his passion in numerous competitions and commission works with big brands and street names such as Nokia 180 Chairs Street Design Works, FleshImp Clothing, SMRT Street Art Competition, Singapore Youth Olympic Street Art, The Cathay Graffiti Competition among other participation.

His Diverse and multi discipline endeavor has gained him some awards and recognition in his fields. His first TV documentary debut in Suria in 2010, he was also selected as featured artist for Noise Singapore Exhibition and Showcase on the magazines, murals and digital artwork.

Currently working as a freelance artist and art educator, he now dwells in the art form of Caricature and characters with hope to be able to diversify his love for graffiti, street art and caricature to create more eye candy and original works. As he continues to embark on the yellow brick road, he keep himself sane by chanting "Expect The Unexpected and Do The Unexpected"

With 5 years teaching experience with multi-level students from Primary, Tertiary to Corporate level. I am well-versed in almsot any art form such as cartoon drawing, Character Design, Watercolor techniques, caricature drawings, Graffiti and art mural installation.

Feel free to drop by and say Hi if you have any queries.

JYC Community Mural With OCBC

The main stars for this project was a joint effort by volunteers of OCBC Bank and the kids from the Jurong Youth Centre. OCBC is a partner for the Singapore Children Society and this year the committee led by Mr Desmond Lim of OCBC Group O & T Division, decided to give a new facade to the centre.

For us, we were engaged to guide the participants for the workshop. More than 70 participants took part in this project, all of them had no knowledge of graffiti.
