How to Incorporate Art Prints into Your Office or Workspace

In today's evolving work environment, creating an inspiring office space has become more crucial than ever. Research from the University of Exeter reveals that employees working in enriched spaces with artwork and plants are 17% more productive than those in lean environments, with those who have control over their workspace design showing up to 32% higher productivity.¹

Enter Art by Poh, a stunning collection of contemporary Australian art that brings both cultural richness and aesthetic sophistication to any workspace.

The Science Behind Art in the Workplace

Dr. Craig Knight from the University of Exeter's School of Psychology, who has been studying workplace environments for over 12 years, found that enriched office spaces significantly impact employee wellbeing and productivity. His groundbreaking research, published in the Journal of Experimental Psychology, demonstrates that when employees can personalise their workspace with art, they experience:

  • Increased productivity and efficiency

  • Improved mental clarity and focus

  • Reduced stress and anxiety

  • Enhanced creativity and problem-solving abilities

  • Greater job satisfaction and engagement

Discover Art by Poh: A Fusion of Cultures

Poh Ling Yeow brings a unique perspective to contemporary Australian art. As a fifth-generation Chinese Malaysian who migrated to Adelaide at age nine, Poh's artwork beautifully bridges Eastern and Western cultures. She has a Bachelor of Visual Communications from the University of South Australia and has been painting professionally since 2002.

The Girl: A Window to the Soul

At the heart of Poh's work is "The Girl", a recurring character with distinctive dark eyes that invite viewers to see themselves reflected. This character represents anyone who has felt like an outsider: culturally, spiritually, mentally, or physically. As Poh explains, "They are meant for you to see yourselves in. If I gave that away, you would know her completely, and there would be no mystery for you to wonder about."

Through The Girl's journey with mythical animals and Australian birds, Poh explores themes of belonging, identity, and finding one's place in the world.
