Bank Negara Collection of Paintings

From the archive. The date and writing reflect the original record.

Seng Choo’s painting of nubile rural women with angular chins and slightly elongated bodies, evoke’s the serene abandon of Soo-Pieng’s works. Contemplation has more to do with the romantic sense of loss yearning for the unattainable. It is a sensuous piece of art in which a landscape of inhospitable grandeur keeps melting into colours, forms and textures of flesh.
