About IAKAM

IAKAM — Different Lives Here IAKAM is a family-owned, faith-based creative brand founded in 2018 by a mother and her son—both artists driven by purpose and passion. Our story began in a hospital room, where Tay started creating paper figures at just five years old while battling chronic asthma and severe allergies. Art became his strength, his expression, and his way forward. Today, as an adult artist, Tay continues to draw, design figurines, and produce heat-pressed creations alongside his mother—a designer and musician whose creativity bridges visual art and sound. “Different Lives Here” is the heart of IAKAM. It means be you, be different, and be proud of who you are—as an artist and as an individual. Rooted in faith and created for the world, IAKAM exists to create and inspire for everyone, celebrating originality, resilience, and purpose in every design.Read their story
