This artwork, aptly titled “Intriguing”, portrays the majestic phoenix in mid-flight, gracefully interweaving its existence with the regal lion dog adorning the crown of the Peranakan ware. The symbiosis between these mythical beings and the Peranakan symbolism is nothing short of enchanting. The artist’s palette is a vivid explosion of colors, each hue infused with the spirit of the Peranakan culture. The brushstrokes themselves are a dance, an intricate choreography of gesticulative movements that elegantly interlace around the canvas. The result is a composition that resonates with the vibrancy and depth of the Peranakan legacy, taking the viewer on a visual journey that is both captivating and evocative.
