Karin Weber Gallery
SoHo, ,
HK Hong Kong
"Faces to Figures" by Charles Cham will open on Thursday 27th November 2008 at 6.30pm ˆ 8.30pm and run until 18th December 2008 at Karin Weber Gallery in Hong Kong. From the outside of his studio walls in Malacca to the heart of every painting, Charles Cham has always embraced colour with confidence and pride and this new collection "Faces To Figures" is no exception. Karin Weber Gallery is proud to present Charles Cham's latest collection of lurid and comical characters who wink and gesture to the audience with a tongue in cheek attitude that polarizes viewer's comments instantly. As one of the original members at absolutearts.com Charles Cham uses a Portfolio to promote his work.
His works play heavily with the "duality of life"; his double faces are equally unbalanced, mirror emotions are depicted, his signature appears top and bottom of every painting, colour opposites are used side by side. Even his attitude to his work is a balanced equation "I believe that drawing is thinking and painting is feeling. Therefore, I draw what I think and paint what I feel". The result is a visual satisfaction that collectors worldwide love and are devoted to.
Charles Cham started painting at the age of five inspired by the first movie he ever saw. After working as an editorial artist for a few years in Kuala Lumpur, he went to France and became a member of the Association des Artistes Indépendants in Aix-en-Provence. He has exhibited in Singapore, Hong Kong, Bali, Australia, France, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Portugal and Malaysia.
