      Heman Chong (b.1977) Things That Remain Unwritten #106 The paintings that constitute 'Things That Remain Unwritten' are images set adrift, castaways, things that are lost. It is a territory of secrets. Similar to stories that have been forgotten, erased and/or censored, unwritten; these works move in a realm that is ambiguous, devoid of contexts, particles in suspended animation. While effortlessly fusing familiar genres in painting, of abstraction, colour fields, expressionism, assemblage, the series evokes a particular autobiographical grapple with the history of art, of painting. Beginning in July 2013, 'Things That Remain Unwritten' compliments an earlier series 'Cover (Versions)', where both series are often presented in tandem, and without any boundaries, flowing in and out of each other, entangled and intertwined.
