Solo3 - TRAILS : Artist's Statement
Trails, part of my visual diary over the past 10 years, are the trails of my artistic journey.
I am enthralled by the beauty of Nature, may it be the blazing clouds in the sunset, the roaring waves over the sea, splashing wind, soaring mountains, flowers… that have always inspired me in art making. Nature too has enlivened my palette in the use of colours. My intent is to capture the essence of the subject matter and visualise it with my own lens. Usually, I would lay down the first wash in acrylic. Then, working intuitively, building up layers and textures. By going beyond the usual representations to create abstract images, I learn to embrace spontaneity and see the beauty in imperfections. Abstraction infuses open dialogue and space for imagination. To me, every piece of creation is an emotional response and presents a challenge in decision-making. Through my work, I hope to share the love of our Mother Nature with the appreciation of art. Do cherish for a better world and always take care of our environment and ecosystems. Siew Lee March 2022 |

About The Artist - Wong Siew Lee
VISUAL EXPRESSION WITH AN OPEN MIND
Abstract art is a free-form jazz rendered in colour. It gives me the freedom to imagine, create and turn my senses on. My modern art knows no bounds, there is no limit. In the process of painting I learn to let go, simplify, make decisions and open up to different options. The very act of painting is, for me, a microcosm of life!
