Where creativity finds its voice, and collectors find timeless value
At the heart of MAY KOH ARTSUNITE MANAGEMENT is a simple yet powerful belief: art has the ability to transform lives.

Through education, collaboration, and kindness, she has enriched the art community and touched countless lives, leaving behind a legacy built on passion and purpose.
May believes that art is not confined to galleries; it lives in the discarded, the overlooked, and the everyday. This perspective fuels her mission to push the boundaries of artistic expression, encouraging artists to see beyond convention and discover creativity in unexpected places.
Her commitment extends beyond her own practice. Even today, she tirelessly supports and uplifts budding artists, proving that age is no barrier to passion. Her energy is infectious, her vision boundless.
MAY KOH ARTSUNITE MANAGEMENT stands as a testament to her relentless spirit — a platform where simple projects become powerful expressions of creativity, and where art is celebrated as a force for connection, transformation, and hope.
