iPreciation is delighted to present the third solo exhibition titled Afar by Singapore Contemporary Ink artist Oh Chai Hoo (b. 1960).  

This body of works consists of 23 latest ink paintings that resonate with Oh’s reflections on the meaning and hopefulness in life.  Intrigued by the textured and uneven surface of rocks, the latest paintings demonstrate his mastery in capturing majestic mountain-scape through the use of various medium and his unique painting technique, fusing verses by Cang Yang Jia Cuo, the six Dala Lama. Unlike his previous black and white ink paintings, these soft earthy tones works were inspired by the stones and gurgling water found in Bukit Timah Nature Reserve nearby his home, the signs of times and traces of the past and the imperfection. Oh Chai Hoo hopes to lead viewers to his modest and genuine oasis and to join the dialogue through his paintings.

This short video introduces the veteran artist’s journey and self-discovery to and through the ink, water and paper from the late 70s to the present.

誰先覺將為新加坡當代水墨藝術家胡財和1960年生)舉辦第三次名為《自己的遠方》的個展。

此展將展出23幅水墨與丙烯結合第六世達賴喇嘛——倉央嘉措充滿啓示詩句的新創作。一貫強調地域性創意的胡財和以他獨特和高超的手法將這片熱帶雨林中的泥沙岩石與潺潺流水變成了雄偉壯觀的山水畫作。

有別於早期的黑白水墨作品,這系列以柔和的大地色調爲主。創作靈感來自於在胡財和家附近的武吉知馬自然保護區。他鍾情於石頭的粗細紋理、溫冷質地與凹凸不平的歲月痕跡,認爲這是內斂的美也是歷史的見證。他希望通過作品能夠帶領觀者領略他那最樸實和真誠的淨土並與他的畫作進行思想上的交流。

這段視頻介紹了胡財和從70年代後期至今的水墨探索過程。
