Publisher's Synopsis
Regarded as one of Singapore's leading ink practitioners, Chua Ek Kay is celebrated for his distinctive visual vocabulary bridging Chinese ink traditions and Western aesthetics. After the Rain is the artist's first major survey, covering over three decades of his prolific practice. Essays illuminate Chua's approaches to art and underscore his contributions to the development of art in Singapore. A heretofore unpublished manuscript interview by Chua discovered posthumously, reflections by his wife and a biographical timeline offer insights to his practice.
