SYNTHESIZE ABSTRACTION: Reflections of the New, Remembrance of the Old By Robert TEO
Synthesize Abstraction – Reflections of the New, Remembrance of the Old, is a 3rd solo visual exhibition by Singaporean artist, Robert Teo, after Digital Synthesis (2004) and Sense of Space Reinvented (2002).
Exhibition will be open to public from 21 - 30 August 2008
This exhibition explores the synthesized energy of the urbanity of Singapore, in contrast to its hints of history hidden in the landscape. This is a continuing theme which Teo focuses on to explore urban life and its social spaces. Using digital medium in a painterly manner, Teo’s paintings may come across as an intense digital print of an abstract painting in a semi-realistic style, questioning the essence of paint and pixilated nature of digital. His technique and style are developed from his practice and interest in digital art, photography, and painting. Teo has participated in many selected group shows and is a member of the Modern Art Society, Singapore.
