About the Item
"Exploration of Love" reveals the artist’s concept of bittersweet life. Happiness and depression leave marks in our life, just like those creases in batiks. All creases are gathered together and turn out a love shape. The artist believes one’s life is completed because of bitter and sweet experiences.
Tony Ng collects many Batik for his own interest. He chooses batiks to be his painting subject, not only because of their vibrant colours and patterns, batik is also a symbol to present civic culture of Malaysia. Tony Ng attempts to remind people to look back traditional items that may have forgotten at somewhere else, just like traditional convention has been gradually vanishing in the history. Every Batik is unique. Every piece presents beauty of own culture.

Tony Ng
Tony Ng is personally interested in collecting batiks. He has chosen the textiles to be the subject of his paintings not only because of their vibrant color and patterns, but also because the art itself symbolizes the civic culture of Malaysia. Every batik is unique, and every piece represents the beauty of this culture.
Tony Ng Chit Keong was born in 1980. He graduated from Kuala Lumpur College of Arts with a diploma in fine art and also completed an art restoration course at Accademia Riaci in Italy. Today Ng is an emerging Malaysian artist who focuses on the aesthetics of batiks — he endeavors to elevate their beauty in his work and believes them to be a unique subject in contemporary art.
Ng’s art can be found in the collections of Mandarin Oriental, Soka Gakkai Malaysia (SGM) and elsewhere.
