Artist Statement:
Charles CHAM started painting
at the age of five inspired by
the first movie he ever saw.
It was a story about an artist
with a magic brush and
everything he painted became
alive. He painted birds and
they flew away. He painted
fish and they swam away in the
river. Finally he painted a
woman, she became alive and
they fell in love. When
Charles came home that day
after the movie, he started to
draw a portrait of the painter
on the floor with some cake
powder belonging to his
mother. That was his first
portrait.
After working as an editorial
artist for a few years in
Kuala Lumpur, he went to
France to paint. He became a
member of the Association des
Artistes Indépendants in
Aix-en-Provence and exhibited
in the Salon des Indépendants
in 1990 and 1991. In 1993, he
set up his studio in the old
quarter of his hometown in
Malacca, Malaysia, and named
it The Orangutan House. In
1995, he mounted his solo
exhibition "Yin Et Yang Et
Cetera" at the Creative
Centre,
National Art Gallery in Kuala
Lumpur. This quickly followed
by other
exhibitions in the region and
internationally. ...
