          Est: RM10,000 - RM18,000

          The bamboo, from shoots to full-grown is revered among the Chinese for its durability, versatility and virtue. It has multiple uses like as writing and musical instruments, home utensils like ladles and table-mats, bows and arrows and weapons of death, and even food. Combined, it’s a tough cookie and not even frost could break it. Broken, like the stumps in this Cheah Thien Soong’s painting, it is un-thwarted for even in the parellel drawn to the brush-strokes, there is continuity. One should have the character and spirit of the bamboo, which may bend with strong winds but is still intact when it blows over. Cheah Thien Soong @ Cheah Mei is known for his Nanyang Style combination of the Chinese spirit and Western compositional aesthetics, with the inconspicuous padi-bird as his mascot. His mentors at the Nanyang Academy of Fine Art (NAFA) in Singapore included Chen Wen Xi, Cheong Soo-pieng , Chen Chong Swee, Xi Xiang Tuo and Georgette Chen, and he was given the NAFA Alumni Association 'Creative Award' in 1989.
