Talking Textiles: The View from the Outside
July 6, 2022
Each one a layered collage of inspired narratives, Deborah McKellar’s work is a tribute to the city of Singapore and ...
Singapore is often referred to as the Garden City. In 1967, the then Prime Minister, Lee Kuan Yew, had a vision to transform the city into a ‘Garden City’. As a result, major works took place all over the city planting trees and creating beautiful green spaces. This artwork shows the contrast of high-rise buildings, impressive angular structures towering above the lush organic greenery that surrounds them. The two balances each other creating a harmony between the organic and constructed.
The foreground of the artwork is highly textured. The plants are embellished with Chinese silk, Indian Saris and Batik, all paying homage to the multi-cultural society found in Singapore’s bustling city.
This canvas print is a digital reproduction of an original artwork by Deborah McKellar.
