"In as far back as I can recall, I have always
somehow been inspired and awed by the
dramatic beauty of the human figure, in stasis and
motion, as portrayed in traditional mythological and classical
paintings, stylized in modern cinema, or recorded in
photographic detail.
This visual empathy with the contours and planes of the
human body, especially the face, compels me to capture and
document the image pictorially, which translated into myriad
portrait drawings, from the sketchy to the detailed. However, I
felt that these self studies of the human form were somehow
lacking and could not give full expression to the invisible pulse
and rhythm of life that emanate from human existence.
To extend my visual vocabulary to better articulate such
visceral sensibilities, I took up an introductory course in
drawing at My Art Space in October 2007. At the studio, I was
taught how to see objects differently, which helped me
delineate the complexities of transferring reality into two
dimensional images, through tonal charcoal drawings of clay
figurines and still life.
To infuse my art with vitality, I decided to continue my art
exploration with the studio in oil painting. The oil painting
classes opened up a multitude of exciting possibilities for my
art as I learnt color interaction, appreciation of brushstrokes
and the textural richness of the medium that help me to
recreate and distill the essence of the human form on the
canvas."
"My Art Space also encourages self learning through
browsing groundbreaking artwork of eminent contemporary
artists to find a personal idiom. Also art critique sessions
are held regularly to share artwork and opinions in a
convivial setting, which can be immensely insightful .
Having practiced at the studio for over a year, its
significance for me in my art exploration journey has
transformed from being a mere classroom to a community
of like-minded individuals seeking self expression
collectively.
I have been working in the finance industry for the past 4
years, pertaining to trade settlement and asset servicing
aspects of banking operations. For me, art helps to open up
new horizons in my visual experience of life and cultivate a
sensitivity for the aesthetic, as I learn to see and distill the
essence of things rather than focuson their utility. This
helps me learn to empathize with my peers better as a
result, which is important in building rapport at work.
Also, the many art movements created throughout the
history of art, and the resulting myriad of variations on the
same subject matter, opened up new possibilities of
seeing and this has a liberating effect on my approach
towards problem solving at work, as I continuously
challenge myself to exhaust all possible angles."
