"For me, I usually use natural materials such as feathers, leaves and petals. I also use nets and aluminium foil to enhance the visual effects." - Loo Foh Sang Loo Foh Sang has mastered the art of printmaking with over five decades of experience creating artworks with the medium. Survival Of The Fittest depicts a cockfighting scene executed using intaglio technique. On his website, Loo shares the technical process of intaglio print "in which the printmaker cuts the image into a metal surface using steel or diamond-tipped tool, or etches the image into the plate's surface with acid. The area below the surface holds the ink. As a damp paper is placed on the inked plate, the print is produced when the paper picks up the ink in the grooves as a press roller passes on top of it. This is the opposite of the relief technique and comes from the Italian word intagliare - "to cut into". Loo Foh Sang attended Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts in Singapore from 1963 to 1965.
