by Chan Hampe Galleries Tanjong Pagar
Location: Chan Hampe Galleries Tanjong Pagar
Artist(s): TEH Chan Kerk
Date: 12 Jan - 28 Jan 2011

Following Chankerk's last exhibition "Horizon of changes" - a tribute to the historical importance of Chinatown - this series extends his oeuvre to other parts of Singapore. Locations vary from hidden back allies of conservation shophouses, the Singapore River, to the iconic architecture prevalent in the CBD. Chankerk aims to demonstrate the contrast between the demand for progressive growth and the desire to preserve Singapore’s cultural heritage. Chankerk explores shifting of images, gestural strokes, and layering of paints to create a sense of tension, uncertainty, and melancholy, a reflection of the social, physical, and spiritual phenomenon of a rapidly changing Singapore.
