The Story
These eyes, a set of 6 paintings, mark the entry and exit into the whole collection.
Growing up in multi-cultural Malaysia, embracing diversity is a way of life.
I grew up learning, understanding, respecting and embracing the different perspectives moulded by traditions, religions and individual explorations.
Even as an individual, my worldview has changed over the years.
This composition represents both the individual and collective experiences.
Firstly, the changes in perspective an individual goes through with time.
And secondly, the multitude of individual perspectives that exist in and as a community.
The merging of the 'Sun and Moon’ elements as the eye’s pupil, represents the idea of time or timelessness.
These eyes symbolize the gateways that exist around us and within ourselves.

Contemplation Series
“As we journey through life, we find ourselves cocooned in contemplation at various junctions — in search of enlightenment and some form of understanding of ourselves.
This journey is symbolized by the mandala crowning our heads. Each of us have different and maybe similar rings of sacred truths which we have uncovered in our contemplative wanderings. Truths that we have come to realize makes us who we are as individuals. And as a community, we create a lush kaleidoscopic landscape of experiences to explore.
In our contemplation, we evolve and draw closer to being our most authentic selves. That’s the beauty of the process.“
