For his first solo exhibition, Singaporean sculptor Lim Soo Ngee metaphorically and literally presents his artistic oeuvre On the Table. Rather than displaying each sculpture to maximum individual benefit on a pedestal, the output of his wood, stone and bronze endeavours will be laid out several large tables in the gallery for all to inspect, unadorned. In this way, his audience will be encouraged to touch, handle and pick his artwork up for close and personal examination, although the largest pieces will have a home on the floor. On the walls, fine pen drawings echo the objects on the table, and are no less sinuous and organic in line and form. Soo Ngee's artistic practice is thus laid bare for all to see - simple, direct, honest - on the table.
