“There is nothing in the nature quite as helpful to
man as a tree.” opined by Eric Rutkow, an environmentalist. Yet the
very existence and demise of trees can be easily forgotten. This
series of works from felled Khaya trees embraces the audience with its
beauty in touch,
movement, sound and smell – a fitting memory of its being.
Bringing artistic functionality of these reclaimed
wood to the fore, Swee Siong’s investigation of the medium manifested
in a series of mobile sculptures that are modular,
transformative and adaptive to different settings as well as interactive to the
viewer.
