Solo Exhibition: Bumi Asing, Segaris Art Center, Kuala Lumpur, 2018
Description
Nature, with its timeless capacity to heal, regenerate, and sustain life, has served as a timeless source of inspiration for artists across centuries. In Lohong Gunung, the artist captures a quiet moment steeped in stillness and contemplation, featuring a landscape rendered with clarity and serenity. The mountain terrain, textured soil, scattered rocks, and the graceful flow of a stream unite to form a harmonious composition that reinvigorates the spirit.
