Abstract: An acrylic-on-canvas piece called ‘Hidden Image I, 1988’.
If a picture can tell a thousand words, then Dr Choong Kam Kow’s ‘Cross Culture. Trans Era’ retrospective exhibition of over 260 works is a biography in its own right.
Featuring 15 series created during the various stages of the Ipoh-born artist’s 60-year career, it is a revelation of Choong’s life journey, starting from his early years as an art teacher at the Perak Girls’ High School until his battle with colon cancer in 2005.
