The Coffee Shop Series
The amazing story of a series first exhibited in 1992 at Chye Hong Coffee Shop in Bukit Timah
The Coffee Shop Series was inspired by the Chye Hong Coffee Shop in Bukit Timah. This now long-gone location held an interesting summary of the Singapore society. It most naturally brought together a Chinese family, the owners of the coffee shop who sold drinks, a Malay family and a group of Indian men who served cooked food, all of them living and working harmoniously under one roof. Over the time my attempt at drafting a portrait truly reflective of the multi-faceted universe had pushed me to use a varying range of mediums and techniques; from charcoal to black and white photograph; from Chinese Brush to oil and pastel. ..... Upon the making and completion of the works, it became clear that there were four clear distinct styles that had evolved into four separate personalities. They called for four different fictitious characters, Lu Ma Su, Ma Geylang, Gila Masok, and Jill Nasso.

Watch The Exhibition
Subtexts is a semi-abstract, semi-figurative series of acrylic on canvas conceived as a story without beginning and without end. Created as a response to the confinement endured during the Covid 19 pandemic, the series depicts a gigantic imaginary territory.
It is both an invitation to escape from our everyday condition to find solace in our inner self and a reflection on the new world we have to live in. Watch the video below to see these artworks in the artist's studio.
