NUS MUSUEM
Scholars and Ink exhibition
Now till AUG
http://www.nus.edu.sg/cfa/museum/index.php

The title of the project plays on the association Chinese ink has long had with a literati culture in Chinese history. Scholars & Ink proposes ways of seeing modern and contemporary ink painting through the classical "Six Principles" and "Six Essentials" of Chinese ink paintings espoused by Xie He (479 - 502) and Jing Hao (c. 855 - 915) respectively. The diversity of artistic approaches, highlighted by their purposeful and varied references to ink conventions and contemporary strategies, is significant as an entry point into the longstanding ink tradition and its practice today, marked by simultaneous continuities and transformations. The Singaporean artists featured in the exhibition include: Dr Tan It Koon (BSc (1st Class Hons), PhD, MCB), Dr Ho Chee Lick (Snr Lecturer, Dept of Chinese Studies), Yeo Shih Yun (BBA, 1998), Hong Sek Chern (MA, SEA Studies) and Ling Yang Chang (BA (Econs), 1987).

Explaining my works to the Guest of Honour < Mr Baey Yam Keng , with Mr Tan Boon Hui, Director of Sinagpore Art Museum.

We received a question by SAM fan Isaac Wong asking if 'Conversations with Trees' is an exploration of processes, and it is indeed. Here is artist Yeo Shih Yun explaining the different artistic processes which she used to achieve the desired outcome in her mixed media installation. Shih Yun: Processes are very important in a lot of my works and especially in this series. The process for this was very tedious for me. I had to collect the marks from the trees, scan the marks, choose the marks I like, and then recompose them using Photoshop, transfer the prints to silk screens and then on to the final painting. So yes, it is really about processes.
