Catalogue of exhibition by young Malaysian artists Chai Chang Hwang, Chuah Cong Yong and Helen Guek Yee Mei, held at Valentine Willie Fine Art, Kuala Lumpur, 25 May–10 June 1997. 'Helen Guek Yee Mei's lyrical compositions draw on the universal themes of romance and family on an intimate level. Chuah Chong Yong's magnificent portrayals of urban decay bring us somehow closer to the architecture, development and destruction we see on a daily basis. Chai Chang Hwang's superbly styled pastiches of Asian magazine visuals, signboarding, streetlife, religious and political icons and literary texts tries to make sense of our confusing cultural heritage and our society.' — excerpt from Introduction. Includes brief commentary on works and artists' biodata.
