        HOE SAY YONG : Interaction I, 2010

        Est: RM12,000 - RM22,000

        Hoe Say Yong was born in Batu Pahat, Johor, Malaysia and obtained his Diploma at the Kuala Lumpur College of Art (1975 to 1977) and in 1982, he had his first solo in Johor. He won the Asia Art 2011 award organised by the Korea Culture Art Research Institute and followed it up with an exhibition 24 Solar Terms, at the Seoul Metro Art Centre in South Korea. The combination of cool blue mixed with a generous red thrown in gives the impression of a myriad of emotions involved during the execution of this piece. It moves and flows ever so gently, as a gentle breeze blows. The water’s surface has become his canvas in exploring different realities of unexpected harmony, fluidity and an imaginative colour play.
