Description
Intrigued by the forgotten corners of culture, the painting invites viewers on a personal journey. Stepping through the canvas becomes like stepping into a hidden world, where traditional musical instruments awaken. The gong, gendang and serunai weave through the scene, as if the instruments are playing a silent, visual symphony. The painting also features intricate patterns and motifs that enhance the sense of cultural richness and tradition.
Cheng Thak has been a full-time artist since graduating from Kuala Lumpur College of Art in 1989. He's known for showcasing architectural heritage and disappearing trades in his lush and romantic style. Notable exhibitions include "As I Was Passing" in 1997 at Hotel Istana, Kuala Lumpur, and recent shows like "Jalan-Jalan 2" at PinkGuy Gallery in 2022, followed by "Festive Seasons" at the same gallery in 2023. His works are held in collections of corporations, hotels, and private collectors.
