Supernova Interview

The new year holiday season is fast approaching, and it’s been great connecting with you guys all this while. Just before the arrival of 2020, I am honored to have been interviewed by the Visual Collaborative (a U.S.-based festival and publishing platform that receives acclaim internationally) to share my belief and practice in art, design, and life. Here is the link for the interview @ the VC's “Supernova” catalog:

The Art of Collaboration

Congrats to all art students and art educators on their collaborative effort and exhibition at the National Gallery Singapore! We are all very proud of this meaningful event and enjoy the journey of creation and interaction.

As an artist & educator, I enjoy working through art collaboration and self-designed art-making processes to obtain unique artistic lingo. It fuels my art, pushes me by understanding a subject matter from different perspectives, and helps me grow by challenging me through group participation, interaction, and interpretation.

In this series of work, I worked with two separate groups of students to create two-dimensional spaces made up of elements that resonate between the familiar and the unknown. By employing different perspectives, I try to encourage an experiential view of the mindscape, as the landscape that exists for the viewer in the physical world, where sightlines are constantly shifting.

I was inspired by the NGS art collection “Under construction” created by Leng Joon Wong. His painting has an immense power to draw viewers into his subject matter through the painted perspective line works. I intended to focus on the art-making processes rather than the final outcome, so we started on-site sketching with pencil and Chinese ink on paper materials as a seeding unit, followed by planting the group's mindscape by working with acrylic paint on canvases. These painted mindscapes had grown organically and become a rhythmic labyrinth to enter and travel through, wherein the viewer experiences his or her own personal associations.
