The Doubter Drawing

A practising artist in Singapore since 2003. Our consciousness will be changing according to the society we are living in, our sense of reality or illusion is an amalgamation of our memories and experience. So our reactions to people in society are very much depends on consciousness. The material world seems so real to us, but the way we live in it, the way we communicate with people is so precarious and illusive. I am interested in the urban condition and what lies beneath the facade of a person. My aim is to present the grey area of the above understanding in this fast changing society. Some of us judge people purely by appearance, or some will judge even without seeing them. So does the body really matter? Perhaps we care too much about this material body, and any happiness or sorrow it brings us is only illusion. Plato insists that artists are just creating appearances, not the actual real things. When I transform my consciousness onto the paper, they become representations of my experience. And like what Picasso said, Art is a lie, but it is a lie that makes us realize the truth. May we see below the surface of these fact of uncertainty to have a deeper understanding of human condition.
