ABOUT THE ARTWORK

I took a picture while climbing up to the temple Kek Lok Si in Penang, Malaysia. I was inspired by lush tropical vegetation and bright light. Losing my way up I found the walls of the temple and the jungle under the temple that inspired a series of my work. This is one of them. It is a photograph, but I also hand painted over it a little bit with acrylic paint in an almost unperceivable way, but it makes the artwork more complex, powerful, original and unique. 120 x 160 cm, digitally altered photograph on textured pvc, hand painted over with acrylic paint, edition of 12, 2017 This photograph was also exhibited at International Photography Festival at Pontermoli, Tuscany, Italy in July 2017. The photograph is also published in the book: TJASA IRIS, 8 WINTERS IN SOUTH EAST ASIA, A EUROPEAN UNDER THE TROPICS, PHOTOGRAPHS 2009 - 2017, available at Amazon. The photograph is sold unframed, but can be framed at additional cost.
