The Artist Speaks: Chua Ek Kay

Known primarily as a sculptor who produced abstract wooden pieces and stone-carved works, Kim Lim channelled natural materials into paradoxical expressions of stillness and motion, substance and weightlessness. Her practice explores the relationship between art and nature, drawing inspiration from her varied travels across Asia and her life in Europe. In this publication, her process of shaping materials into contours of curves, lines and surfaces over three decades of artistry takes centre stage. Writings, sketches and notes shed new light on her masterpieces, offering a glimpse into Lim’s personal and artistic life.

The second and third titles in The Artist Speaks series respectively delve into the performance artist Lee Wen’s body of provocative, thought-provoking and sharply satirical works over three decades, and ink practioner Chua Ek Kay’s innovative Chinese ink painting practice, informed by a lifetime of tireless study and rumination. Both titles feature the artists’ writings and sketches, which offer personal insight into their lives and perspectives.
