DANCING WITH THE ELEMENTS by Cheev and Dennis Chan
at G13 Gallery
18th July – 9th August 2014
Featuring
the latest paintings by Dennis Chan and the sculptural works of Cheev, “Dancing
with the Elements “ is a unique exhibition to evoke the simple pleasures from
the ordinary act of perceiving the elements conjured by figurative and
landscape forms. According to gallery director Kenny Teng, “the artistry and
the unconventional approaches to both forms and materials applied by these two
unique artists have no peers locally and the simple and raw qualities of their
works are a refreshing pleasure to behold.”
Cheev
continuing with his sculptural figurative form, revisits his works in
2-dimension that involves photographic
and digital application of his sculptural works to produce very strong and
intense images. He tags his sculptural images as “Sculptographics”. Regarded
for his raw and sensual female attributes which he passionately devoted to for
over 40 years, Cheev sculpturing methods are ever evolving. He now combines and assembles fragments of
carved wood pieces to complete his figurative subjects. This allows a resulted hollow but much
organic and dynamic look that reflects Cheev’s current idea about energy being
the source to life and forms. He terms this art conceptualization as
“Fragmentalism”.
Dennis
Chan decision to focus exclusively on the colour blue, away from his rich
coloured application of his previous works, has moved up to another level challenging
his mastery in scenic abstractions. It is from his maturity and confidence with
both technique and material that compels him to create a more thematic series
of works. His trademark drip and swirl technique captures a stronger and deeper
reflection of water, sky and land elements of nature. Besides exploring the
dynamic and diverse fluidity of his medium, the spirituality associated with
the colour blue played a major motivation for his latest works.
It
is Dennis Chan and Cheev camaraderie and their invisible bond towards the
passion for art that led G13 Gallery’s fortune to showcase both their works
simultaneously.
