작품 상세

Titled Joy, the composition conveys a sense of uplift and quiet vitality as seen in the close bonding of mother and child. Through carefully orchestrated forms and rhythmic mark making, Eng Tay’s mastery of the etching process is well demonstrated. Executed in 1980, the work belongs to a period when the artist explored expressive possibilities within printmaking, favouring clarity of structure and lyrical restraint. Joy stands as a contemplative and collectable example of Eng Tay’s contribution to graphic art and printmaking practice.
