高原印象
Impression of Cameron Highlands
Mixed Medium
16 x 24 ins, 2006
 

Yeo's paintings are characterised by their wide-ranging diversity: diverse sources of inspirations, variety of themes, mixed media, experimentations in techniques, surprising effects.

 
Since 2002, Yeo, a Malaysia-born, 1977 alumnus of NAFA has been deeply immersed in his new series The Cameron Highlands Paintings. Typically, his preparation for these paintings was all-encompassing - exploring myriad views of the mountainous environment, as well as constantly gauging the atmospheric light. This week-long exhibition is supported by Club NAFA.
