Lui Cheng Thak is known for creating poetic scenes of Malaysia’s architectural heritage. This painting depicts a row of louvered-panel windows rendered in a calming palette with a hint of green and red from a hanging batik cloth, and a vintage birdcage. The framework of the window allows the viewer to recall memories and traditions associated with a bygone era, and serves as a link between past and present. Lui Cheng Thak received his diploma in Art & Design at Kuala Lumpur College of Art (1987 - 1989). His solo exhibitions include Bayang, Pinkguy Art Gallery, Kuala Lumpur (2015), Circles: Cheng Thak, Lui, Nostalgia and Collective Memory, White Box Map @ Publika, Kuala Lumpur (2014).
