Exploring the imaginary blooms of the narratives from my beloved late grandmother. She loved flowers, especially loved admiring blossoms in the morning. However, her vision started to decrease drastically in her early 80s. The ever-changing scenes in the blossoming garden became blurry to her. For a period, she almost lost seeing all blooms in vivid colours. Through other sensory organs, such as nose, ears, skin and palms, she experienced anew vibes around her from molecular level. The narrative suggested a series of fragmented, distorted, molecular images derived from visual deficiencies. I made this painting to depict the images in deficit. It is the epitome of the complex visual conditions of my late grandmother’s eyes. I wish to channel the deficient images to aesthetical direction and to encourage a respect, a bravery and a confession of the imperfect conditions of human eyes, such as aging, obscurity and impermanence are innovatory artistic direction. This painting is signed on the front or back and includes my Certificate of Authenticity. *** THE PAINTING WILL BE SHIPPED IN A CUSTOM-MADE CARDBOARD BOX. *** Please contact Saatchi Art Curator for any questions or commission inquiries. ©2019-2028 Fuen Chin Artworks (003497914-V).

“Inspired by her family’s background in Chinese herbal medicine, Fuen creates calligraphic botanical paintings with dense, rhythmic compositions and bold mark making.” – Rebecca Wilson, Chief Curator for New Voice, Saatchi Art 2021 Special Edition Catalog. Fuen Chin is an artist who grew up in Kedah state, Malaysia. Her art takes inspiration from horticulture which is a nostalgic reflection of her childhood. Both her late grandparents were Chinese from Southern China with backgrounds in Chinese herbs and medicine, running a small herbal shop. It was there where Fuen learnt the importance of Chinese herbs and the stories around them. It is these stories and her visions about plants that provides an endless inspiration for the calligraphic floral paintings. Starting out as a self-taught artist, Chin eventually studied a Fine Art research degree at the Royal College of Art. She has worked on an art installation, citing the following response from the panel of judges: ‘We very much enjoyed your proposal and presentation and thought there were a lot of interesting possibilities that may emerge from your works.’ She continues to work and develop her calligraphic paintings using Chinese ink within a more contemporary context.
