"mʌlti is an exhibition featuring the artists Christopherson Ho (Singapore), Jamie Tan (Singapore), Kyung Sun Jun (Korea), Lam Yau Sum (Hong Kong/China), Lijie Ong (Singapore), Martha Chaudhry (U.S.A/Singapore), Nandita Mukand (India/Singapore), and Wei Li Leow (Singapore). The works presented traverse a multitude of media, exploring the reciprocal relationship between content and form. Medium functions to transpose ephemeral thought into corporeal vessels, giving expression tangibility. Yet its purpose is far more than auxiliary; each material has a signature of its own and dictates content as much as it is dictated by content. Whatever their medium of choice, each artist’s practice is underscored by the same desire for self-expression. The works in this exhibition have been crafted in a plethora of mediums, both traditional and contemporary; juxtaposed so, a conversation between the materiality of each medium is sparked."

On creating abstract art

10/9/2016

1 Comment

 
A painting, a life, a process. 
The allure of abstraction lies in finding more and more of me on the painted surface. Vulnerable, true. Every mark on the canvas, like an event that leaves its trace on the painted surface -does it complement the ones that came before or does it go so far beyond that it makes them redundant? So many get painted over in subsequent layers, others are allowed to show through. But when a painting is done it is still only a link to the next one. Each painting is but an event in the ongoing saga.

The Material of Time: Debut Solo Show

This series of paintings and sculptural works are inspired by natural surfaces built up over time. The surfaces of nature reflect the phenomenon that bring about their creation- weather, geography, geology and the inherent intelligence of each cell within the biological forms of trees, lichens, moss and fungus. These surfaces record the passage of time occurring continuously, steadily over decades oblivious to the many ups and downs of human fortune. They are a reminder that everything is always in a state of flux yet despite the seeming disorder and chaos there is an underlying order.

I was honored that Kumari Nahappan, an artist I have admired for long, agreed to curate this show.
