Inner Reflection

Ieo Gek Ching’s third solo exhibition, Inner Reflection at Miaja Gallery is an extensive showcase of her etchings that are inspired by Greek mythology. Touted as an emerging local visionary to look out for over the next decade, Gek Ching trained and honed her skills as a fine arts student at Laselle College of the Arts. Infatuated by the weird and the wonderful, her works – primarily ball pen sketches and intricate paper collages – features a catalogue of unusual animal hybrids drawings, a result of Gek Ching’s fascination over the beauty of nature and her study of ecology. Think a leopard with the monkey arms, or an eagle with zebra legs.
