    • Ng Swee Keat (b. Kedah, 1979) Portrayal Of Development Series #7, 2012
      Mar. 27, 2022

      Ng Swee Keat (b. Kedah, 1979) Portrayal Of Development Series #7, 2012

      Est: RM9,000 - RM14,000

      A towering machine (comprised of excavator, backhoe, tractor, cement truck, crane etc) with giant limbs is seen destroying the forest, cutting down trees and clearing land to be sold for huge profit. With incredible contrast between the fiery red and grey, this work reveals the ominous greed of big organisations in the name of development. The bottomline is money. No one cares about the environment. Such irresponsible act leads to deforestation, and habitat loss for animals. Ng Swee Keat is a graduate of the Malaysian Institute of Art, where he majored in oil painting and Chinese ink painting. His works are collected by museums and public institutions such as the National Art Gallery of Malaysia, Nokia (M) Sdn. Bhd, United Overseas Bank, Philip Morris and are held in private collections. Ng's achievements include being awarded the Best Student prize at his alma mater, and in 2011, he won the top prize at the UOB Painting of the Year competition and in 2011 was presented the Malaysian Emerging Artist Award (MEAA).

    • NG SWEE KEAT (b. 1979) SELF PORTRAIT, 2003, Oil on canvas
      Apr. 29, 2018

      NG SWEE KEAT (b. 1979) SELF PORTRAIT, 2003, Oil on canvas

      Est: RM2,000 - RM3,500

      Lost in thought, this self-portrait depicts the contemplative side of Ng Swee Keat, that he isn’t distracted by what is in front of him, but rather, what it can be. He is known for painting blankets and quilts, bringing the texture of the patchwork to life. He is probably laying down relaxingly on the quilt. It’s a bliss to be able to lay back and relax.Ng Swee Keat is a graduate of the Malaysian Institute of Art, where he majored in oil painting and Chinese ink painting.
