작품 상세

Born in a rural coastal town in East Malaysia, Chang Fee Ming is one of Asia’s most renowned watercolourists. His richly detailed and vibrantly coloured paintings of life in idyllic, rural scenes have established his reputation as a sensitive observer of culture and promoter of culture. Chang expertly transforms colours into wondrous snippets of life. This work entitled ‘What About These?, Mekong Delta, Vietnam, 2001’ in particular is arresting, depicting a couple of locals clad in sarong and a shirt are congregated with straw hats to protect them from the sun, engrossed in their work. Meticulously rendered, one can discern the motifs on the sarongs and the subject’s profiles — simply beautiful.
