Welcome to Yeoh.com, the online presence of Kok Cheow Yeoh, Graphic Design Head for Graphic Design at Indiana University Southeast in New Albany, Indiana, USA.
The heartiest congratulation to my graphic design student, Paige Saint Germain for winning two awards at the ADDY Awards awarded by the American Advertising Federation on Feb 28, 2019 held at the Foundry at Glassworks (815 W Market St, Louisville, KY). She was the recipient of the Gold Student Packaging Award and the 2019 Student Judges Choice Award. The graphic design program that I headed has always been supportive or ensuring that students submit their work to gauge the abilities against the best in the region. She was also paid to attend the event which cost $65 per student. The best part was that she was told 'we would love to work with you' a creative director of Scopecchio, a renowned design firm in Louisville.

He held his solo exhibition at the Ronald L. Barr gallery at Indiana University Southeast. A total of 23 posters with topics ranging from social, political, and economic, a snappy and unapologetic title, 'I've always wanted to be an artist but became a graphic designer,' the exhibition ran from Nov 8 - Dec 3, 2017. He has actively participated in several international exhibitions such as the La Ciudad Ligera in Madrid, Spain (Oct. 4, 2017) and the Beijing Design Week 2016 (Sep 26 - Oct 6, 2016).
He sees travel as a form of active and deep learning, especially the latter in which it is about understanding, not just memorizing.
