Artist Hong Zhu An’s ink works convey a modern sensibility. While his visual language can be traced back to Chinese philosophical tradition, Hong has gradually broken away from the iconography of classical Chinese ink paintings, and transformed the subtle tension between paper and ink to a quieter, distilled expression — a language of his own.
In this conversation with curator Jennifer K. Y. Lam, Hong will share reflections on his artistic journey and the evolution of his ink practice that continues to explore, question, and reimagine what Chinese ink painting can be.
*The conversation will be delivered in Mandarin with simultaneous interpretation (Mandarin to English) available on site.
艺术家洪祝安的水墨作品传达出了一种现代的感性。他并未停留在对中国哲学传统的视觉回声之中,而是缓缓松脱了图像再现的枷锁,将纸与墨之间的微妙张力,转化为一种更为静谧、凝练的表达方式,一种属于他自己的水墨语言。
在本次与策展人林家欣的对谈中,洪祝安将回顾他的艺术经历,以及他对水墨画不断探索与重构的创作演进。
*本次对谈将以华语进行,现场提供英文传译。

About the Exhibition
Showcasing over 50 new acquisitions and other ink artworks from Singapore and Southeast Asia, "Where Ink Tides Meet" explores the fluid and evolving nature of ink art, tracing its transformations across different generations, geographies, and artistic dialogues. Moving beyond conventional narratives, the exhibition examines how ink—deeply rooted in tradition—continues to be reinterpreted, exchanged, and expanded in meaning.
