What we do
Mesh Minds provides a support platform for artists based in Southeast Asia and the UK who wish to gain exposure and showcase their work at an international level.
How we do it
- We feature artists selected by an intrepid team of culture-seekers whose passion is to showcase some of the most exciting emerging contemporary artists based in Southeast Asia and the UK.
- We assist with digital marketing strategies and public relations for artists who need to develop and manage their online and offline presence.
- We organise events and exhibitions in Southeast Asia and the UK.
- We connect cultural philanthropists with exceptionally talented artists seeking the resources they need to make their projects happen: the art of crowd funding.

The Art of Crowd Funding
Artists across all disciplines can promote their work and solicit donations by submitting a creative project pitch online. Groups of cultural philanthropists donate part of the money for a creative project and in return get special privileges such as updates from the artist, invites to openings, discounts on commissions or limited edition work, or even some or all of their money back if the project is successful.
It's not going to change the world, but it may provide artists with another avenue for raising money for projects. This could lead to some outstanding work that may not otherwise have been undertaken.
About Kay Vasey, Founder
I am a lawyer and fellow of the RSA whose favourite daydream is to think about commissioning artists to help me produce the ideas in my mind: a hanging lampshade made out of porcelain and ribbon; or a bar stool made out of a mini armchair, perhaps.
Connecting people is my passion and what drives me are the unique relationships that can (and have been) created by Mesh Minds. Being from an English and Singaporean family, I am well-positioned to be a facilitator of opportunities between the UK and Southeast Asia.
