Breakthrough Artist
kang's Biography
An engineer-turned artist who believes in leading a fulfilling life. He expresses himself through art. He seeks to be inspired visually. Problem solving is his hobby. Be true to himself is his challenge.

"To me, art is no different from engineering. Both involve problem solving. I enjoy the journey of exploring the unknown, creating possibilities and translating ideas into reality. As an artist, I enjoy the challenge of generating new ideas, creating something unique.

I like to explore and experiment different approaches, styles, and medium. I am also drawn to other creative outlets, like drama, film, music and writing.

To be creative requires certain amount of faith and self confidence. On the other hand, it is comforting to know that there are endless possibilities and that there is always a solution at the end.

I see life itself as an art. An artist lives and breathes art. He or she should be sensitive to both the inner self and the world surrounding.

I express myself through art. And through art, I hope to know myself better."

kang had his first solo exhibition "In the mood for love" held from 17 Nov till 7 Dec 2009 at Fill-your-walls gallery. Opening night is on 20 Nov.

"In the mood for love"
vincent views this series of oil paintings as adventurous and playful experiments. his approach to painting is one of destroying what is on the canvas to seek new directions and ideas, largely inspired by jazz music where ‘improvisation often creates unexpected outcomes’. Having a background in music also inspires him to create abstract painting with
lyrical eects. being inclined to present his art in an unpolished manner, vincent keeps it natural and unpretentious, as he feels it mirrors human frailties and vulnerability in a poetic and spiritual manner. with the paintings’ composition extending beyond the boundaries of the canvas, vincent manages to capture the viewers’ imagination and invites them to roam beyond what they see and form their own version of completeness.

Kang is one of the artists in "Singapore, our heritage" show, from 4 to 21 March at Fill-your-walls. Opening night on 6 March, 7pm.

I respond to what I see on the canvas.
I attempt to explore emotions triggered by visual effects achieved in a spontaneous and subconscious manner. 

This approach is inspired by jazz music where improvisation often creates unexpected outcomes. 

Syncopation effect of the jazz music also play a part in forming the visual rhythm of the artwork. This series of abstract works is inspired by the care-free drawing style paintings of Jean-Michel Basquiat and Cy Twombly, as well as by emotion filled abstract work of contemporay artists like Janina McCormack and Sherie Franssen.

I enjoy creating paintings that give a complete-incomplete tension. These few pieces are the results of an attempt with brighter colours. Spontaneous execution with emotional expression.

These few pieces are the results of an attempt with brighter colours. With no predetermined way to complete the paintings, I follow what I see on the canvas. The final paintings show the 'back and forth' process between realistic and abstract interpretation. It is an interplay of emotional versus logical, a reciporal exchange between "what i see" and "what i feel". This series of works, I made an attempt to incorporate realistic subjects into my abstract expressions. It reflects my subconscious interpretation of the subjects.

I selected architecture as the subject for Singapore heritage. Old buildings reflect the lives of our forefathers, specially those in chinatown where people lived and businesses flourished during the last generation. In this series of work, space is often created through the contrast of hard and soft edges.

This is one of the pieces where I explored the notion of constructing through destruction - colour applied are being "removed" by applying a layer of white paints. let me hum a tune, an ode to hue
