SUMMARY:Chng Seok Tin: Through All Vicissitudes
DESCRIPTION:ART:DIS (Singapore) Ltd and artcommune proudly present Through All Vicissitudes: Prints & Sculptures by Chng Seok Tin\, which is on view at artcommune gallery from 12 to 27 November 2022. Featuring over 30 prints and sculptures that span the period of 1976-2010s\, the exhibition traces the motivations that shaped Chng’s four decade-long creative journey and celebrates a life lived large in spite of obstacles and misfortunes. \nChng Seok Tin (b. 1946\, Singapore – d. 2019\, Singapore)\, Cultural Medallion recipient\, was a renowned printmaker\, sculptor and multi-media artist whose devoted practice to printmaking became synonymous with the Singapore printmaking development between the 1980s and 1990s. Chng’s printmaking oeuvre encompasses a variety of techniques and experiments (lithography\, etching\, engraving\, silkscreen\, woodcut\, monotype and ink transfer)\, and reflects her mediations on Zhuang Zi (庄子) and various philosophical texts. Themes of existentialism resonate strongly in her prints and sculptures\, which often dramatise man’s pursuits of dream\, love and freedom\, and the struggles towards enlightenment. At times\, wry social commentary or humorous banter permeate her imagery. \nAn accident in 1988 left Chng visually impaired. This forced her to rely on mainly dry point or mixed media method\, and the help of an assistant to continue her printmaking into the 2000s. Having earlier adopted mixed media installation and sculpture into her practice during her studies abroad in the 1980s\, she decided to focus more on these mediums beginning in the mid-90s as they afforded her a more tactile and flexible exploration of forms and materials. \nA firm believer in inspiring and building the capabilities of the younger generation\, this exhibition will also raise funds towards the CST Education Fund to support young artists with disabilities to participate in a new Industry Mentorship Programme organized by ART:DIS.
