"Alive Without Breath" - Solo Show by Jeng Lye @ K+ (Opens Jan 22)
Opening January 22nd at K+ Curatorial Space in Scotts Square (6 Scotts Road, #03-14/15, Singapore / 9383 1629) is "Alive Without Breath" featuring the art of Keng Lye who is know for his "resin paintings of aquatic creatures that look unbelievably real". Above is an image of his "Takeaway Fish", and yes, it is NOT a real fish in a baggie!
"It all starts with a layer of resin which I pour into a container. I cover it with plastic wrap to protect it from dust while it dries and hardens. Then I begin to paint: the parts first, for example, the fins or tail of a fish. After the paint dries, I pour more resin over it. When that dries, I continue to paint on it. This process is repeated until the entire subject is formed, layer by layer." -shared Keng Lye of his process.
The show opens at 12noon, with a reception happening from 7pm to 9pm. Keng Lye will be in attendance and limited copies of the exhibition catalogue signed by him will be available for purchase.
Curated by Kinetic Singapore, "Alive Without Breath" exhibits thru August 31st 2015.
