Ling Yang Chang, a prominent Singaporean artist, depicts city life with a distinctive flavour. Ling's works are a delicate balance of Chinese and Western influences. Even in the free rein of Western Abstract expression, the fine lines and tonal qualities of Chinese painting are never absent. Boldly, he simplifies the intricate architectures, textures and colours while paying detailed attention to the surrounding scene; a narrative which never fails to form a bond with the observer.
