About The Artwork
Almost every day, I will have meals with my family, and I just realized that the kids have grown up ..by a lot. The sad part is that they don't engage much and are less expressive. I am generalizing that children these days are mostly stuck to their phones, on youtube, or social media all the time. As compared to the times when I was a kid, we used to hang out with friends and had much more physical connection and engagement. I guess it is the sign of the times. I often wonder if my children will grow up and become socially adaptable and can have quality relationships with society. Sometimes, I worry that they may be like "a fish out of water" and become inadequate with the all-so important life skills of connecting with people. This painting says it all, and it stems from my wandering mind...

Malaysia
Alvin Koay is a self-taught artist and is best known for his intuitive painting and bold colors. Resonating with the abstract expressionism movement of post world war II, he is influenced by the early works of Willem de Kooning, Basquiat, Picasso, and other great painters of that era. All of his works are based on impulses, spontaneity, and improvisation. He constantly finds "accidental aesthetics" as he attacks the canvas with vigorous colors, lines, and textures. He paints his state of mind and emotions, with motives from mother nature, animals, and the worldly good. Alvin uses primarily acrylic on canvas as his preferred medium.
