Sou Leng Fong uses marine life as the medium in her artworks to explore the mystery of the seas.
Jointly organised by the Cultural Affairs Bureau and the Macau Artist Society, the “Sou Leng FongCeramic Art Exhibition” will be inaugurated on Sunday, 28 May, at 12pm, at the Lakeside Gallery - S2 room in the Anim’Arte NAM VAN, featuring eleven sets of ceramic works by Sou Leng Fong. The exhibition runs until 25 June (Sunday). The public is welcome to enjoy local artworks.
The exhibition is themed on “star gazing, flower viewing, and fish watching”, creating close by the viewers a feeling of “emptying, downshifting and seeking”. Intrigued by the mystery of the seas, Sou Leng Fong uses marine life as a subject in her works, through which she illustrates the interrelationship, conflict and confusion among people. For example, floating fish resembles people looking for their respective directions.
Sou Leng Fong, born in Macao, has been keen on ceramic creation and materials exploration. She graduated from the School of Arts (Art Education) of the Macao Polytechnic Institute, majoring in Sculpture; and is now engaged in art education for children. In addition, she is an executive member of the Youth Committee of the Macau Artist Society and Vice President of the Macao Sculpture Association. Her works have been selected for the 12th National Exhibition of Fine Arts (Beijing), the China Changchun World Sculpture Conference—Chinese Contemporary Youth Sculpture Exhibition and the Macao Annual Visual Arts Exhibition (2010, 2011, and 2014).
