About the artwork

In this piece, the artist uses darker hues and earthy tones to represent an age that has passed. And yet, with the use of fluid strokes and less-defined forms, the past is infused with the present. With faded layers of ink on rice paper, we feel a sense of longing and nostalgia for times gone by - our deepest memories tinged with slight melancholy.



About the artist

Born in Singapore in 1966, Chua Say Hua is a recipient of the Chen Chong Swee Scholarship and the Philippe Charriol Foundation Scholarship. He graduated with a Diploma in Fine Arts from the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (1989-92) and furthered his art education at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology in Australia (1993-94) as well as the Goldsmiths College in London (1996-97).
