That Day, I Was Sketching on the Street

Ong Hieng Fuong, Visual Artist

29-Jul-22 14:35

That Day, I Was Sketching on the Street

That day, I was sketching on the street is Ong Hieng Fuong’s debut solo exhibition, and is described as a display of his conversations with observed moments of life. His works are rendered in a variety of mediums, from vibrant poster colours to elaborate woodcuts. He joins us to talk about his works, and how growing up in Tanjung Sepat, a small fishing town in Selangor, formed much of the inspiration for his artworks.
