Artist Statement

In Gan Tee Sheng’s earlier 2019 series, he explored dark, surreal worlds, leaving viewers to decipher enigmatic scenes. This fascination with mystery subtly carries over into his current “nude” painting. Whether intentional or subconscious, this link adds intrigue to his evolving artistic vision. Notably, the recurring motif of two hands tightly clutching the body in these paintings creates a specific tension for viewers familiar with his background, hinting at deeper narratives and unspoken emotions.
