This SELFIE series is a mini series within the dot series.
My intention is cover the whole wall with the word SELFIE in different language. All words are written in mirror image and viewers are expected to use their handphone to view the actual words.
The paradox intended is: what you see is not the real thing. The true meaning is hidden somewhere, in this case, a selfie.
It is also to tease those exhibition goers who spend more time talking selfie than viewing the actual artworks.

I love art since young and my background in architecture has been keeping me in touch with the world of art and design. It was in 2010 when I started to paint seriously after being influence by the philosophy of Friedrich Schiller. He claimed that creative arts can transform human spirit and I was curious to see how it works. While working as a part time lecturer at Republic Polytechnic I devoted most of my time on painting. Since 2011 I have participated in some group shows in Singapore, Thailand and India. There was a breakthrough in 2018 as I had my first solo show at a commercial gallery in Singapore. After two attempts I was overjoyed to win the UOB Painting of the Year (established category) in 2019.
