Lim Hak Tai , Construction site of a shipyard at Tanjong Rhu, 1953, Oil on canvas, 40 x 50 cm
In the western art world, the word ‘impression’ is connected to the movement in painting where images became less direct and representational. Instead, the idea of making a picture from depicting all other elements such as light, feeling, sensation and even an intuitive response took precedence. The landscape as a subject in Southeast Asia prevails as a pillar in distinguishing its artistic flair and evolution. This exhibition features works by Singaporean and regional artists, demonstrating beyond the medium such as watercolour, oil or ink, there lives an unique impression we should delight to discover in our experience of these works.
Venue: Lim Hak Tai Gallery, NAFA Campus 1, 80 Bencoolen Street, Singapore 189655
When: 12 - 31 Mar 2019, 11am - 7pm. Closed every Monday.
