The Escape A series of photographs and snapshots

“The f lower in the hand. The f lower signifies us. We are all wonderfully and fearfully made, just like that f lower.

However, sometimes we go through life and we let our insecurities tear us down, and we forget that we were made perfect in God’s eyes.

But if we were to place our security in Him, God will carry us through, just like the hand that carries the f lower tenderly, even though we’ re broken, God still loves us.”

The Passing A feature on a big-scale project

Beauty In The Broken Beauty. The qualities that give pleasure to the senses.

Brokenness. Incomplete, fractured, disordered or ugly.

Two opposing forces.

What happens if beauty is found in the broken?

This is a fascination I’ve had all my life, whether I realised I was fascinated or not, which led me to searching and seeking the answer for that question. The search brought me to places I have not been to - comfortable or otherwise - to understand beauty, perfection, perception, death and many others.

After garnering the understanding (or at least a better understanding) of these aspects of beauty and brokenness, I embarked on a big-scale project that involved many art forms - photography, illustration, sculpturing and a whole lot of thinking like an artist - all these to convey the challenge to the world that there is beauty in brokenness.

This project took 3 months in the making.

“There is no exquisite beauty without some strangeness in the proportion.�

Angel sculpture & Box tower The angel sculpture was placed on a tower of boxes that were painted on.

After the presentation, the tower was destroyed, causing the sculpture to fall, resembling a fallen angel.

My name is Boey Wei-Jan. I’m born on the 27th of September, 1990.

It started off with a passion for a totally different view seen behind the lens. Later on a realisation on my inherent artistic sensibility. Then a longing to tell stories, whether visually or with words.

I see myself as a person who has many ideas waiting to be channeled into many different forms of art. I want people to embrace the uncanny through the things that I do. I am motivated, creative, able to conceptualise and capable of juggling multiple projects at once.

In addition, I posses people skills as I’ve gained experience by being an active committee member of the Interact Club and involvements in various co-curricular activities in secondary school, thus making me capable of communicating and understanding people plus able to adapt to almost any environment I’m placed in.
