With my vivid imagination, I use symbolism as a tool for my expression through art. My works are strongly based on drawing, utilising diverse elements to transmit my feelings and philosophies learnt from life’s struggles. In “The Eyes,” the outline of a head is filled with eyes looking in different directions, symbolising the human nature of observation and absorption of our surroundings. In the middle of all the gazes, the two layered pot is rooted, still collecting our inputs and filtering with our conscious or subconscious will. The vertebrae are placed above all these human processes as symbols of discretion. The spine is used as a metaphor of our integrity that leads us to keep up virtues for the wellbeing of our world.
