About my artwork
Title: Lepak di 蝙蝠 town
Year: 2024
Medium: Ink wash
Size: 60cm x 90cm on canvas
‘Lepak di 蝙蝠 town’ means ‘Hang out at Bat town’ in English. A small town I called home, its name came from a Malay word meaning a kind of bats which once upon a time lived in this little quiet haven of mine. This painting is a collage of 蝙蝠 town where I relak, retreat, refill, recharge, repeat and replay. It is rendered in black and white with splashes of colour purposefully to suggest it is quite left behind by time though awakening in recent years.
All my bags are packed
Ready go….
I’m leaving on a choo choo train
Don’t know when I’ll be back again….
