From the outside, the new pieces in contemporary sculptor James Seet’s fourth solo exhibition may appear to be ordinary works made from clay, but once you glimpse inside them, you’ll see that there’s more than meets the eye.

In Echoes Of Eden, which will run in George Town, Penang this weekend, Seet explores themes of nature, harmony, and the human impact on the environment through his thought-provoking works.
