BLOOM SPRINGS ETERNAL
Prestige Singapore
|December 2023
Hong Kong artist LEO WONG immortalises the fleeting beauty of flowers in delicate, hand-wrought ceramic in his exhibition at The Fullerton Hotel Singapore.
Fragrant, fair and ever so fragile, peonies are one of the world's most glorious flowers. With a short blooming season lasting just seven to 10 days, they are notoriously difficult to find at peak season, and even harder to bring to tropical Singapore.
Unless, of course, they're made entirely of porcelain, like the riotous garden of over 50 yellow, peach, pink and red "flowers" lovingly recreated in lifelike detail by Hong Kong-born artist Leo Wong at his exhibition in The Fullerton Hotel Singapore. Dubbed Assemblage of Colours, the art installation that also includes poppies, dahlias and tulips is more than just the 42-year-old's first solo exhibition in Singapore.
It is also emblematic of a lifelong passion for flowers and botanicals, cultivated across Wong's studies and career - he once worked as a landscape designer specialising in vegetation management, having earned a qualification in Singapore as a certified arborist - and expressed through the art of delicate porcelain flowers.
