Introducing our next artist, we have Vincent Leong. Born in 1979 at Malaysia, Vincent is amongst the youngest artist we have at the CAIS Project but not at all the least in anyway. Educated at the Centre of Advanced Design (CENFAD) KL from 1998-2000, he furthered his studies at Goldsmiths College, University of London for another 4 years from 2000-2004. And upon returning to Malaysia, he has not fallen short to be actively involved with our nation's local art scene.
'Tropical Paradise AG32', VWFA
'Tropical Paradise G929', NumThong Gallery - Bangkok
'Tropical Paradise MR20', Sculpture Square - Singapore
With many previous groups and solo exhibitions both in and abroad, Vincent is definitely one artist that has not despised his youth. Amongst his other works are the 'Tropical Paradise' series that was exhibited at Valentine Willie Fine Art-Malaysia, NumThong's Gallery- Bangkok as well as Sculpture Square - Singapore. This work highlights, as mentioned in Vincent's own words, "all the cliches of exotic life in this part of the world. Of dancing women to kampung scenes."
