Trio II is Lim Ka Seng’s personal expression of human figures in a distinctive style. His application of contrasting hues of red and blue enhances the alluring beauty of three oriental ladies. The work shows the artist’s experimentation with colours and space, placing the figures against a backdrop of fragmented and overlapping forms in a faceted space. Filled with emotion and tenderness, the musical ambience emanates through the captivating arrangement of figures. Lim Ka Seng graduated from the Tan Guan Hin Art Class Perak in 1961, and from the Press Art School England in 1963. He was President of the Contemporary Malaysian Watercolourists Association (CMWA) between 1998-2001. In 1998, he won the Education Minister Award from Japan Modern Arts Association in Osaka, Japan. He has participated in numerous international exhibitions in the Asia Pacific, such as the Guangzhou Art Fair in China (2008), and Hangzhou Art Fair, China (2009).
