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. Ship in tube This item will arrive rolled in a dent-resistant tube. This method is especially safe for oversized works, and provides lower shipping costs as well. Rolled works can be easily stretched (for canvas works, i.e. placed onto wooden stretcher bars) and/or framed by a local framer upon arrival. Upon immediate delivery, we highly recommend you send any works directly to your framer for cautious, professional unrolling of the artwork.
